| Norman Lindsay's first experiment with
etching was in 1897, twenty years before he became seriously involved
with
the medium.
(Pirates' Captives) was the result and depicts a robust pirate scene
(rather reminiscent of a woodcut in style). It is annotated: This
little etchings was done in the year 1897. My brother Lionel started
etching at that time so I experiment with example of the
Black Art. This annotation appears below the image on
the facsimile etching. The original etching was never
published. |
