Gerard Stamp was commissioned to produce a limited edition print to celebrate the completion of the Hostry Visitor and Education Centre.
Limited edition giclée print Cathedral from the Cloister
A limited edition of 250 prints have been produced on 310gsm, acid-free, mould-made etching paper using archival inks.
Each 22 x 15 1/2 inch impression is supplied mounted and ready for framing. It costs £275 and is numbered and signed by the artist and embossed with the Cathedral shield. Half the proceeds of sale go towards aiding future arts projects at the Cathedral.
Prints are available from the Cathedral Gift Shop or by contacting Gerard Stamp.
The print was exhibited in the CATHEDRAL MMX exhibition in the Hostry Exhibition Room from 30 April to 18 May and was viewed by the Queen at the official Hostry opening ceremony.
About Gerard Stamp
Whilst attending Norwich School in the shadow of the Cathedral, he developed a passion for drawing and painting, and for architecture. He would cycle into the Norfolk countryside to sketch and explore churches and landscape, with Pevsner’s Buildings of England in his saddle bag. On rainy days he might be found in the Norwich Castle Art Gallery, studying the architectural watercolours of John Sell Cotman, his artist hero .
After Art College, he pursued a commercial career in advertising culminating as creative director of Leo Burnett London which, under his chairmanship, became the most creatively awarded advertising office in the world.
In 2002 he left to work full-time as an artist and returned to live in Norfolk. Since then he has exhibited widely and to much acclaim.
