Neave Parker ORIGINAL INK PUBLISHED 1940 in Vulpes An English Fox by Harper Cory

Description: Please study the photos carefully as they form part of the description. An original ink on scraperboard by the celebrated natural history and dinosaur artist William Neave Parker (1910 - 1961) for page 64 of Harper Cory's book, 'Vulpes An English Fox', first published in the UK by Thomas Nelson in 1940 (please note that the book is not included within the sale and the photo from the book is included for illustrative purposes only). Due to the combined boldness and decorative effect and his clear talent for such a method, Neave Parker came to prefer scraperboard for his book illustrations for this period. They were created by covering a drawing board with ink and then scraping away the ink to reveal the white beneath (you should be able to see the scrape marks on the photos provided). The artwork on offer here is from the period directly before Neave Parker became famous for his dinosaur illustrations. It's possible that the natural history artwork on offer here and in my separate listings may even have brought him to the attention of the Natural History Museum in London. Following service in the RAF during the second war the Natural History Museum commissioned Neave Parker to produce drawings to illustrate palaeontological reconstruction. His drawings stimulated popular interest in prehistoric life and were used to illustrate publications by the Museum. On the Natural History Museum's website they state 'Parker's illustrations are so beautiful and detailed that they remain favourites among dinosaur fans and experts alike'. I have a few other original inks by Neave Parker that were published in this book as well as ink drawings by him published in other books that I will be listing separately. Condition: On artists board.No tears or creases. The drawing measures approx. 10cm x 9.5cm.The artists board measures approx. 15.5cm x 13.5cm. Postage:UK and US mainland only, thanks. Rest assured the artwork will be well packed.Photos of the packaging in progress will be provided to the purchaser. VAT / CUSTOMS TAXESPlease note that any customs charges or VAT charges are always the buyers responsibility to pay.
