Paul Drury (1903-1987) was an important artist and printmaker whose work played a decisive part in the etching revival of the late 1920s. He was a leading member of the generation of etchers trained at Goldsmith's College and influenced by F.L.M. Griggs. His early works, such as this, reflect the intense mystic spirit of Samuel Palmer's Shoreham period landscapes.
