Carrara is a 2001 by Emma Stibbon, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Emma Stibbon’s print *Carrara* shows the huge marble quarries in Italy’s Alpi Apuane. It’s a print, not a painting, made in 2001. The scene is big, dark, and full of sharp contrasts. Stibbon first sketches the quarries on site, then carves the image onto plywood and prints it. The final work captures the vast, shadowy space of the quarries. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
