1928
About the Item
The image show a panoramic view of the architectural arches and the boats in the harbor of Dieppe in Normandy France. Dieppe was occupied by German naval and army forces after the fall of France in 1940. In order to allow a better defense of the coast against a possible Allied landing, the Germans destroyed the mauresque casino that was located near the beach area. The destruction of the casino had only begun at the time of the Dieppe Raid in the Second World War. The raid was a costly battle for the Allies.
Anderson created this stunning drypoint in an edition of 80 in 1928. It is listed in the Meyrick and Heuser catalogue raisonne as #180. It is signed in pencil.
As a student at the Royal College in 1909, Stanley Anderson was taught etching by Sir Frank Short RA. Short was both a practitioner of and keen advocate of the Whistlerian etched line. Whistler had died in 1903 and his presence was keenly felt among etchers of the day. His influence on Anderson is evidenced in the calligraphic line, plate tone, composition, and chiaroscuro.
Anderson responded to the socio-economic changes he observed as, within a mere quarter century, the British Empire of his youth was transformed into a nation scarred by two world wars. His painstakingly wrought prints reveal that every line or mark serves a purpose.
'Stanley Anderson Prints: A Catalogue Raisonné' by Robert Meyrick and Harry Heuser was published by the Royal Academy of Arts.
