Four Seasons is a portfolio containing 4 Giclée prints by acclaimed British artist Peter Blake, each hand finished with a Screen Print Glaze. All prints are signed by Peter Blake and presented in a bespoke, British Racing Green portfolio box with colophon and title pages. Godfather of British pop art, Sir Peter Blake, is one of the twentieth-century's most prolific modern artists. Employing an astonishing array of styles and techniques, Blake's work is nothing short of iconic: from the famous 'Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' album cover - a meticulous collage of cult characters - to his compelling oil painting 'Self Portrait With Badges', Blake has developed a well-established and well-loved style over the last half a century. Four Seasons box set features a print for each seasonal phase of the year. In true, Pop kitsch, Blake has used a mash-up of jarring styles: saturated, illustrative landscapes are populated by collaged characters, from Victoriana figures to 1950s pin-ups. A hint of surrealism has been blended with a sprinkling of tongue-in-cheek irony, for a truly unique, visually powerful series of limited edition prints.

Blake studied at the Gravesend School of Art before attending the Royal College of Art. During Blake’s long career, he has exhibited extensively and has explored various styles and subjects, focusing primarily on themes of idolatry and stardom. In the 1950s he travelled across Europe and studied folk art, which informed a change in style, from classical naturalistic oil paintings to collages containing movie stars, musicians, and pin up girls. In 1969, Blake moved to Somerset and became a founding member of the Brotherhood of Ruralists. This group of artists moved away from both urban life and the ‘new media’ of the 1960s and 1970s, opting instead for traditional skills like painting. Deemed ‘The Godfather of Pop Art,’ Blake has created a diverse range of collages with various subject matters in popular culture such as film star posters, badges, and postcards. The artist cleverly blends modernity with our society’s infatuation with celebrity cult status and nostalgia. Blake was awarded the title of Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE) before receiving a Knighthood in 2002 for his services to the visual arts. In addition to this great honour, he has received the Leverhulme Research Award and the John Moores Junior Award.

Blake exposes the commercial side to pop culture using his unique collage style.

Peter Blake has produced an amazing range of work throughout his career. Today we are taking a closer look at his stunning ‘Found Art’ series started in the early 2000's using cutting edge technology to create a new form of art. The series is based upon one of the earliest tenets of pop art: that everyday objects can become the subject matter for fine art, from Warhol’s Soup cans to Jeff Koons Hoovers. Every work in the Found Art series takes its starting point as a piece of ephemera drawn from Peter Blake’s extensive personal collection. His fascination with arcane ...
