Frances Blairs's 'At the Trossachs'

 


I had a note from a reader telling me how how pleased they were to find Frances Blair's colour woodcut 'At the Trossachs'. I am not surprised. This stylish and very attractive print has not been seen online before and was sold only in July in St. Petersburg, Florida, so it has provided me with a good opportunity to let readers see another side to Blair. Very much in the Scottish tradition of art deco picnics, it is numbered 32/100 so Blair must have sold quite a few, leaving us all with hope we may find it, too, one day. 

Many thanks to the reader for tipping me off. I only wish I had got there first.
