Item:1962446440222024 embossed copper "Bernard Leach,St Ives potter" by Bill Payne. Newlyn style.. 2024 embossed copper plaque of "Bernard Leach ,St Ives potter"" by Bill Payne gallery and museum artist born in 1951 and living in Worcestershire.3"x4" ,signed and dated on back.This type of copper art was done by fisherman in Newlyn ,Cornwall ,in the late Victorian age to about 1930 to add to the income of fisherman who were near the poverty line.My design was embossed on to a sheet of copper using a knitting needle then the indented image refined either side of the original lines to make the image stand out..Then the surface was patinated over the gas hob and the surface polished with a brillo pad to give it age .Will look great in plain frame.It is new but looks old!! The wonderful Newlyn Copperworks thrives today making bespoke designs of a high end nature for interiors and exteriors .The Newlyn artists from the1880's until 1930's portrayed maritime scenes in all their emotions.Sad,happy,poor ,steadfast and long suffering..To Victorian urbanites fisherfolk seemed like a romantic idyll.Far from it.This is an image of the famous St Ives potter,Bernard Leach, who ,at first an etcher, learnt his pottery skills in Japan in the early 1900's and returned to St Ives where with his friend Shoji Hamada he set up his pottery.They both lived a very simple life but the Leach pottery continues today.His iconic wares are collectable and much treasured...
