Sheep Droving in New Zealand by Marcus King

NZ Vintage Print

Image size in millimetres: 340 x 510

Superb vintage NZ poster design re-printed on archival paper with lightfastinks. A sheep drover (shepherd) on horseback and sheepdog moving a mob of sheep. Well-known designer Marcus King used power pylons to create a sense of the vastness of the landscape. Originally printed around 1930. Unusually for the time the original print was created using a very simple printmaking process called a "relief print" that didn't require a printing press, perhaps only a small number was originally required.
