Nursing the Baby
Lithograph, ca. 1931, 245 x 330 mm., Arnold & Appleby L.21 (as “Country Cider”). Fine impression on thick white wove paper with full margins, signed and titled in pencil and dedicated to E. L. Allhusen, the first cataloguer of Blampied’s etchings; stains in the right margin and the lower left margin corner lost. Blampied is famous for his etchings and drypoints of life on the Isle of Jersey, but he also made a few very effective and rather scarce lithographs. Among them is this atmospheric tavern scene, humorously and clearly titled by Blampied, though catalogued under another name in the 1996 catalogue-raisonné. The “baby,” of course, is the jug of cider. We have seen only one other impression of this print offered for sale.
