The etching aquatints illustrating Chaucer’s ‘Canterbury Tales’ are from one of 175 unbound sets signed by the artist from 1972. The edition was of 275 + 25 Hors de Commerce, of which 175 were produced in the unbound edition we have for sale.

Each piece of paper includes an excerpt of text and we are supplying these etchings framed. When framing the etchings, we decided to mount out the text. We felt the etched images were shown to their best effect without the text in view.

Further Information
Dark was the night as pitch, as black as coal,
And at the window out she put her hole
And Absolon, so fortune framed the farce, put up his mouth and kissed her naked arse
Most savourously before he knew of this –
And back he started. Something was amiss
He knew quite well a woman has no beard –
