Paula Rego

A powerful suite of eleven etchings and aquatints by Paula Rego, combining monochrome and richly coloured prints on wove paper to showcase her distinctive figurative vision. The works reflect Rego's signature exploration of myth, memory, and the female experience, rendered with raw emotional intensity and darkly theatrical imagery. Printed with full margins, each piece demonstrates her masterful command of the intaglio process, using the medium's tonal depth to heighten the psychological charge of her narratives.

Medium
Eleven etching and aquatints, nine in colours, on wove paper, with full margins.
