The Story
Pierrot is one of the characters from the Commedia dell'arte - a popular theatre originating in Italy in the 16th century. This is a giclée printed reproduction of an original painting by Sarah Young, originally painted for Glyndebourne Opera House.
Giclée printing is a trusted digital printing method for producing museum-quality art prints with archival quality pigment inks that provide rich, long-lasting colour. This print is printed on acid- and lignin-free Hahnemühle German Etching 380gsm heavyweight 100% α-cellulose paper (alpha cellulose is characterised by its extraordinary velvety tactile feel and its fine, clearly defined felt structure) with a fibrous finish especially suited for reproducing watercolour and ink pieces.
Image size: 30.5 x 42.5 cm.
Paper size: 42 x 59.5 cm (A2).
Open edition, titled and signed.
Sarah Young is a painter, printmaker, illustrator and maker working with narrative themes often inspired by myth, folk tales, circus and burlesque imagery. As a printmaker she is known for her lino and wood cuts but she also works in screen printing, mono print and collagraph.
