Pastorale, from Twelve Lithographs
This 1969 lithograph by Barbara Hepworth demonstrates the artist's characteristic abstraction of organic forms, rendered through the colored printing technique on fine Barcham Green paper. Part of her series "Twelve Lithographs," the work exemplifies her exploration of space and void, themes central to her sculptural practice that she translated into the graphic medium. Published by the prestigious Curwen Press in London, this limited edition print of 60 reflects Hepworth's continued engagement with modernist abstraction and the intrinsic qualities of printmaking throughout her career.
