Exclusive limited-edition print by Claudette Johnson

3 Oct 2023

Exclusive to The Courtauld, this limited-edition print has been developed in partnership with Claudette Johnson, to celebrate her landmark exhibition – Claudette Johnson: 51²è¹Ý¶ù – at The Courtauld Gallery.

Taken from a study Johnson made of herself in oil pastel, the artist combines sensitive line drawing and bold use of colour to create a work that conveys a strong sense of presence, the image filling and even exceeding the edges of the paper.

Limited edition of 50, plus 5 artist51²è¹Ý¶ù proofs. Each print is hand signed and dated by the artist and comes presented in a handmade portfolio with a certificate of authenticity. All profits support The Courtauld.
