TEXTILE DESIGNS

JUDGE (CECIL HENRY) Portfolio containing approximately 100 large striking original designs for textiles, pencil and pochoir on paper, some hand-painted, all but 15 richly and brightly coloured, most with title caption beneath image, some signed with initials ("C.J.") and with design number in margin, sheet size typically 960 x 900mm., a few smaller, c.1935 (quantity)

Footnotes

STRIKING COLLECTION OF LARGE COLOUR POCHOIR TEXTILE DESIGNS, MANY IN AN "ART MODERNE" STYLE.

A varied collection of designs for textiles such as curtains, carpets and upholsteries comprising floral, modern and Jacobean designs - palm trees, golf patterns, modern loops with marguerites and tulips, waterlilies, and abstract and figurative modern designs. All are the work of Cecil H. Judge, N.R.D., of Watford, England.

These designs were realised using pochoir, an unmechanised stencil technique that places a strong emphasis on hand-colouring since the colour is added directly onto the paper by hand, giving the artist total control over the process. The pochoir technique was perfectly suited for the elegant and extravagant designs typical of Art Nouveau and Art Deco in the early 20th century.
