About this work

This woodcut print by Haydn Mackey shows a vivid scene set to music. It’s one of many proofs from his experiments with bold color and sharp shapes. The work was never mass-produced, so each print is unique. Mackey hand-painted the colors on the back of thin tracing paper after printing. He flipped it over so the paint sat face-down on a creamy paper base. See more proofs by Haydn Mackey at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
