Alcock and Brown - Intaglio Print
This "Alcock and Brown" intaglio print is one of a series of prints that I created to celebrate the centenary of the daring Transatlantic Crossing by Captain John Alcock and Lieut. Arthur Whitten Brown in 1919.
They set off from St Johns , Newfoundland on 14th June 1919, and landed some 16 hours later on 15th June, at Derrygimla Bog, Clifden, Connemara, in the West of Ireland.
The print is created with a watercolour chine colle background on Chinese rice paper which is adhered to Fabriano paper, and overprinted with a photopolymer intaglio plate.
The backgrounds in the series of prints are very different, and thus, this is classified as a monoprint.
The image size is 21cm x 15cm.
The paper/mount size is 34cm x 28cm.
