Carl August Liner: his one and only print


A nice if conventional linocut by Carl Liner (1871 - 1946), another of the Swiss painters who made occasional colour prints - Fritz Mock and Alfred Peter being two others. Fairly provincial in his habits, I've been unable to track down any more prints but there is a website dedicated to his work. If anyone knows of more linocuts by this no-nonsense post-Impressionist, I could drag those into the blog.

  3. Hi Charles - I'd love to spend longer looking at your blog but can't because the background you are using is so very distracting and it means I can't see the images properly.

    If you change it let me know and I'll come back and try taking another look.
