Derrick Greaves: Mother and Child (1980) An exceptional opportunity to own a signed, limited edition etching by the celebrated British painter and printmaker, Derrick Greaves (1927-2022). Greaves is one of the most acclaimed British painters of the last half-century, and his works are held in major collections worldwide. The theme of mother and child was prevalent in Greaves's early work, offering a less idealised, more everyday depiction of maternity. This piece perfectly embodies Greaves's mature style: minimalist, yet deeply evocative, capturing a tender, universal moment with striking economy of line. The powerful, concise line work showcases the artist at his very best, relying on candour of emotion rather than superfluous detail. The intimate and universal relationship between a mother and child makes this a meaningful and enduring piece for any home or collection. Framed: 78 x 62 Without frame: 57 x 74 cm Piece in good overall condition, a few minor marks and a small graze on the frame. Please see photos.
