Fishermen

Wiszniewski, Adrian, 1958 (b.) (Artist)‎, Glasgow Print Studio (Publisher)‎, Taylor, John, 1936 (b.) (Collaborating Printer)‎, Robertson, Murray, 1961 (b.) (Collaborating Printer)‎

Illustration of two men in a boat, one rowing and one fishing, with a third figure (holding a net) in the water on the end of a fishing line. Printed in blue and silver ink. In an interview with Glasgow Print Studio on 14th July 2010, the artist explained, “this is quite old, it was interesting doing it too because it’s lithograph and silkscreen.... I must have silkscreened the silver and maybe done a reverse or something like that. It was definitely lithograph. It was great working with Murray for example. Saying ‘can you do this and that?’ and he goes ‘I don’t know let’s try it and see’. We were quite experimental really. That was the fun of doing it.” On the print's subject, Wiszniewski commented; "I suppose it’s quite Biblical, to be a fisher of men.”
