Sutherland O.M., Graham (1903 – 1980) – ‘Hanger Hill’ (T.27 / C.33).

Etching. 1929. Final state. Signed and editioned 61/77. It is in this print that we start to see a change come about in Sutherland’s work. The warm light of his early pastoral works has become cold and hard. The composition is cramped and awkward, the trees are menacing. Uncertainty, even danger, are in the air.
