Godfather of British pop art, Sir Peter Blake, is one of the twentieth century’s most prolific modern artists. Employing an astonishing array of styles and techniques, Blake’s work is nothing short of iconic from the famous ‘Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ album cover a meticulous collage of cult characters to his compelling oil painting ‘Self Portrait With Badges’, Blake has developed a well established and well loved style over the last half a century. ‘Sweet Child Pentangle’ sees a return to the original artwork from the 1968 Pentangle album of the same name. For his updated version, Blake has recoloured the image in exceptional glitter inks, which sparkle with soft iridescence and texture. It’s a truly striking print, rich with colour and compositional technique a must have for the Pentangle fan, the contemporary art collector, and anyone with a keen eye for the iconic.
