Original Eileen Soper Edwardian Pencil Drawings
There are five original (1920's) pencil drawings by Eileen Alice Soper, RMS SWLA (1905-1990) collected together in a single frame.
When we acquired the collection they were in very unflattering mounts and in poor mid century frames. We believe these charming pictures deserved to be saved and properly presented so have had them custom mounted and framed to offer a much better presentation of the work of this important early 20th century British artist.
Eileen Alice Soper was schooled by her father, George Soper, and soon showed her talent in etching and rose to fame herself. Having made her first etching at the age of only thirteen, in 1918, her etched work was first exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts summer exhibition in 1921, the sixteen year old became one of the youngest artists ever to exhibit at the Royal Academy, Eileen attracted immediate attention and her future success was assured.
Her skills lay in understanding of the joy, freedom and liveliness of children. Childhood was to be Eileen’s constant theme – children at play being the particular subject Over the next ten years she produced around 160 original etchings, the popularity of which has endured to the present day. Finishing original etchings in 1930 and moving on to original illustration , she famously became the commissioned illustrator for Enid Blyton's "Famous Five" books as well as others. She went on to be a wildlife artist and founder member of Society of Wildlife Artists.
Size: The Frame overall size is 33 cm wide (13 inches) by 62.5 cm (24 1/2 inches)
Images: Girl with cat: 110mm wide by 85 mm deep
Hide and Seek: 165 mm wide by 108 mm deep
Mother and Child: 2 images 92 mm wide by 118 deep
Little Boy: 118 mm wide by 115 mm deep
Condition: The frame mounts glass is all brand new. The original drawings are on a range of papers, the bottom image was on a tinted paper, all are in very good condition a couple of age spots which are clearly photographed, overall the newly mounted collection makes a fine combination artwork.
HISTORICAL NOTE:
In 1929 Wallace L. DeWolf, the President of the Print Committee at the Art Institute of Chicago, arranged for the entire collection of Eileen Alice Soper’s work to date to be purchased for the Art Institute's permanent collection. Buchanan and Laing Galleries are a private client business. Appointments can be made by arrangement via email.
