Inscribed by Gill, probably to Leonard Woolf

~ Art and Prudence.

1930

Original wood engraving. Inscribed by the artist ‘L.W. from EG’. Image size 7.2 x 13.3 cm. Mounted and framed.

Engraving for ‘Clothes’ by Eric Gill, published by Jonathan Cape in 1931.
Rather charmingly the engraving depicts a sculptor with a strong resemblance to Gill. L.W. may well be Leonard Woolf with whom Gill was friendly and with whom he corresponded. There are records of books inscribed by Gill to Woolf at this time including a copy of The Four Gospels in 1931.
