About this work

Leon Kossoff made this print in 1996-97. It’s a landscape showing Salisbury Cathedral. The print is etched, not painted, which lets him focus on line. Kossoff often reworked his etchings to get them just right. He even altered prints after the first run was done. He used this method to study old paintings by artists like Poussin and Rembrandt.
