11 x 13.75 inches Giclée Print, Hand Signed
(See separate listing for a smaller 10 x 8 inches version of this print.)
This giclée print is a reproduction of my gouache painting 'To the Lighthouse’. ‘This is the loveliest place in the world,’ Virginia Woolf wrote of Cornwall. ‘It is so lonely.’ She and her sister Vanessa went on holiday to the coast there every summer as girls. They walked, and bathed under the watchful eye of Godrevy lighthouse, relishing their freedom – such a contrast to their more circumscribed lives in London.
Woolf returned to Cornwall over and over as an adult, and when she wasn’t there she was haunted by it. ‘Went for a walk in Regent’s Park yesterday morning and it suddenly struck me how absurd it is was to stay in London with Cornwall going on all the time . . .’ Cornwall was the inspiration for her great novel ‘To the Lighthouse’, with Vanessa Bell painting a front cover based on the lighthouse they both knew so well.
My own painting was inspired by the thought of Virginia and Vanessa glorying in their freedom by the sea, although the setting is Devon, with Start Point lighthouse in the background – which is the place that haunts me when tramping the London pavements.
Printed in the UK on archival quality Hahnemühle Photo Rag paper with archival pigment inks.
Includes a 15mm border for easy framing.
Orders will ship within 7 working days of purchase, sealed in a flat, rigid envelope.
