Esslemont's
visits to the Schanilec home in Stockholm, Wisconsin, have
provided the inspiration for these colour linocuts. Printed
directly from the original blocks, each is displayed on a
page of its own. The average size is 200 x 130 mm (8 x 5 inches)
They include: portraits of the family, one of their dogs,
their guesthouse, the old pickup, the prairie, the workshop
and friends and neighbours.
These
linocuts have also been printed in small separate editions
and are available as individual signed prints at £30
($60) each.
