Description
Sarah Churchill Limited Edition Art Print Signed "Sarah Churchill" in pencil, numbered "263/300" in pencil, 35" x 23". In the 1970s, a series of intaglio drawings by Curtis Hooper entitled, "A Visual Philosophy of Sir Winston Churchill" was published by Graphic House. Except for one based on a sketch of her father by Sarah Churchill, each was composed from famous photographs, selected by Sarah to portray the different aspects of her father's life. Each print was assigned a particular Churchill quotation. This print portrays Sir Winston giving the "V" for Victory gesture with his quotation: "We shall never forget your endeavors." The Churchill coat of arms (Marlborough crest), the London skyline, the quotation, and "Sarah" have been debossed beneath the image. There are three small indentations, one beneath the microphone and a light stain at the right edge, and a mounting strip at the upper edge on verso. Very fine.Auction Info
