About the Item
The Gamekeeper's Cottage. 1928. Etching. Garton 8.iv. 6 7/8 x 8 3/4 (sheet 10 3/8 x 13). Signed in pencil. Housed in a stunning 17 3/4 x 20 1/2-inch burled wood and gold frame.
Garton writes, page 27: "Studies for this print were made at Annie Bryant's old cottage in Kington Langley; at Rose Cottage, Corsham, the home of Heather Spackman, his future wife, and at the family house of the Spackmans, also in Corsham....His brother, Leslie, may be seen digging outside the door.... This was the first print to be editioned on the new press. In autumn 1975, the passage beyond the open doorway was reworked, the two flowers standing upright near the figure digging, were thought to be too sentimental and were burnished out, the sky was reneedled, and a shadow laid across the nearer parts of the garden."
An impression of this etching was hung next to Tanner's large plate of Christmas at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1929.
Robin Tanner was an English artist, etcher and printmaker. He followed in the visionary tradition of Samuel Palmer and English neo-romanticism. His etchings began following night-school classes at Goldsmiths College, London. He had been inspired by the major Samuel Palmer retrospective exhibition organized by Martin Hardie in London in 1926, and his first etching was made in that year. He was particularly moved by Palmer's early Shoreham works which had been so influential on fellow students such as Paul Drury, William Larkins and Graham Sutherland. He also acknowledged his admiration for the technical craftsmanship of the older etcher, F.L. Griggs. Tanner was thus part of the etching revival in England.
