Herbert Dicksee - "The Clover Field" original etching

Herbert Thomas Dicksee was a British painter born in 1862. He was best known for his sensitive depictions of animals including dogs, lions and tigers. Dicksee's family was well-ingrained into the art world; his father was an artist and his nephew, Sir Frank Dicksee, was the president of the Royal Academy in London from 1924–1928. Herbert went on to study at the Slade School of Art in London on a scholarship, and his first painting was exhibited in 1881. Many of Dicksee's most famous works were transcribed into prints and etchings published by Klackner of London. He died on February 20, 1942 in Hampstead, England. "The Clover Field" is an original etching dating from 1907. It measures 12"x 18" and is mounted into an old maple frame giving an overall size of 21" x 26". It is unsigned but has the monogram "H...D..." lower left on the plate.
