Title: The Wise Men
Artist: Thorpe, John Hall (Victoria, Australia, 1874 - London?, 1947)
Date: c. 1920 - 1930
Medium: Original Colour Woodcut
Publisher: John Hall Thorpe
Note: John Hall Thorpe 'John Thorpe': A leading Australian woodcut artist of the early twentieth century, John Hall Thorpe studied at the Sydney Art Society, Heatherley's and St. Martin's School of Art. He then worked as both an artist and engraver on the staff of the Sydney Mail. Known equally well for both his landscapes and floral studies, his paintings and woodcuts were the subject of one man exhibitions in Paris and London.
  Shortly before the beginning of the First World War, John Hall Thorpe moved to London and established a studio on Redcliffe Square. Most of his woodcuts were created between 1920 and 1927 and were widely collected for both their superb colourations and strong Art Deco forms.
  An interesting point about John Hall Thorpe's woodcuts was that he not only created the art but printed and published each woodcut himself. They were then shipped and sold not only in Great Britain but in France and the United States. Perhaps for this reason he felt no need to limit his prints in specific editions.
  John Hall Thorpe was a full member of the Royal Society of British Artists and of the Art Workers' Guild.
