Guy Allen
Waning Gibbous Moon by Guy Allen with Wooden Frame

2020

About the Item

Between full and last quarter moon, late at night or in the early morning, you may see the moon in its waning gibbous phase: less than full but more than half-lighted. A full moon rises just at sunset. A waning gibbous moon rises later at night and appears in the morning sky. The Moon has had an importance in human culture since the dawn of history and likely before. Often revered as a feminine deity and counterpoint to a masculine Sun god, its monthly cycle as it passes through its phases has given life a discernible rhythm throughout time. Moon Series Guy Allen’s Moon Series of etchings was conceived and produced during the isolation of lockdown. Printed on to black paper with white ink, this new direction stretched his imagination and technique but produced a luminous series.

  • 'Londoners' 1940s Etchings
    Located in London, GB
    Three etchings from Péri’s observations of people on the streets of London. These small prints were intended to be sold in groups as folding booklets, like postcards. The top etching is closely reminiscent of Péri’s “Class System” which is in the Tate collection (as pictured). “In Class System 1946 (Tate P14973) Peri used close observation of social difference to make a political point about reconstruction and inequality after the end of the Second World War. On the left a man dressed in a suit and hat stands on the pavement, his hand on his hip, leaning on his umbrella. On the right the same pose is adopted by a man standing in the road, wearing a flat cap, shirt-sleeves and heavy boots, but he leans on a pneumatic drill. The figures are clearly identified as upper class and working class by their clothing, and the composition juxtaposes the idleness of the man standing on the pavement with the active manual labourer ready to begin work, implying their relative contribution to the reconstruction of Britain in the aftermath of the Second World War.” Artist: Peter László Péri Date: 1940s Framed size: 22 x 42cm Mounting: Raised-float mounted using acid-free Japanese wheat-starch paste and Japanese paper...
