Description
A reproduction of Lowry's 1924 work 'Bandstand, Peel Park, Salford'. This archival giclee print has a cotton core mount in a handmade and hand-finished sustainably sourced solid ash wood frame. Made in the UK by museum specialists and printed on heavyweight, matt-smooth fine art paper, it's ready to hang on your wall. Originally a pencil drawing produced in 1924, it's one of the many drawings Lowry made of Peel Park in Salford, Greater Manchester. This drawing focuses on the bandstand that had been built in 1902 and was the focal point for visitors for many years before it was demolished in 1965. This print is colour and tone matched to the original. Laurence Stephen Lowry was born in Stretford, Lancashire in 1887. He began to draw at the age of 8 and at 15 began attending private painting classes. On leaving school in 1904, Lowry began work in Manchester as a clerk with a firm of chartered accountants. He studied painting and drawing in the evenings at the Municipal College of Art (1905-15) and at Salford School of Art (1915-25). Despite his unusually long period as an art student, Lowry considered himself to be a self-taught artist. Lowry is best known for his paintings of industrial landscapes of the north of England.
