Claude Flight — Veere
Claude Flight

Veere

A dynamic linoleum cut by Claude Flight, one of the foremost practitioners of the medium during the early twentieth century, *Veere* captures the energetic spirit of the Modernist movement through bold, rhythmic forms and expressive linework. Printed in warm brown ink on delicate Japan paper, the work reflects Flight's mastery of the linocut technique, which he championed as a democratic and vital art form. Initialed in pencil by the artist, this impression from circa 1930 stands as a fine example of Flight's contribution to the British avant-garde printmaking tradition.
