Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson A.R.A. (British, 1889-1946)

The Road from Arras to Bapaume (Leicester Galleries 37)
Lithograph, 1918, on Antique de Luxe paper, signed and dated in pencil, with margins, 465 x 385mm (18 1/4 x 14in)(I)

Footnotes

"Nevinson first learned lithography in 1912...All Nevinson's lithographs were made on stone, not zinc or transfer paper. 'I got back (to London in 1918) to find that a bomb had fallen on the printing works where my lithographs were kept and my stones were damaged. The reason for the extra ridge on my lithograph of the Arras-Bapaume Road is because I had to put in to the cover the injury done to my original stone."

Frances Carey and Anthony Griffiths, "Avant-Garde British Printmaking: 1914-1960", British Museum, London, 1990, p53.
