* CARLO ROSSI RSW RGI (SCOTTISH 1921 - 2010), STILL LIFE monotype, signed and dated '89 43cm x 53cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Label verso: Compass Gallery, 178 West Regent Street, Glasgow. Note: Monotyping produces a unique print, or monotype, made by drawing or painting on a smooth, non-absorbent surface. The surface, or matrix, was historically a copper etching plate, but in contemporary work it can vary from zinc or glass to acrylic glass. The image is then transferred onto a sheet of paper by pressing the two together, usually using a printing-press. Monotypes can also be created by inking an entire surface and then, using brushes or rags, removing ink to create a subtractive image, e.g. creating lights from a field of opaque colour. The inks used may be oil based or water based. With oil based inks, the paper may be dry, in which case the image has more contrast, or the paper may be damp, in which case the image has a 10 percent greater range of tones. Carlo Rossi created an exceptional body of work using the monotype process and was an enthusiastic exponent of the medium.
