Peter Blake - The Paris Quartet Following the success of the Venice Suite, Blake once again finds inspiration in the pages of his Larousse illustrated dictionary and animal husbandry manuals; juxtaposing the best of Parisian architecture with an eclectic selection of figures from every conceivable ethnic origin. Though these images are full of unexpected and out of place content, Blake somehow captures the essence of Paris; the joie de vivre and spirit of bohemianism and surrealism. Each silkscreen print in the Paris Quartet is from an edition of 125, and is signed and numbered by the artist. We have a set of 4 with matching edition numbers (number 8) that are box framed in charcoal stained oak under UV glass. Please call for prices as Blake’s prints have a tendency to escalate in value rather sharply. Sir Peter Blake’s latest release ‘I love You’ is a silkscreen with embossing , gold and silver leaf and diamond dust. It is available in black or white, and uses mismatched collaged letters taken from different sources, a classic motif in his oeuvre.
