Swallows

About this work

This print shows swallows flying across bright wrapping paper. It’s a silkscreen by Clifford Richards from the 1960s. The museum calls it a playful take on mid-century design. The swallows came from Richards’ earlier work for a children’s range called “Noah’s Ark.” Polypops Products made toys and furniture too, but his graphics stood out. Check out more Clifford Richards at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
