Camping 2 signed limited edition silkscreen print by Sir Peter Blake from The Venice Suite.

The Venice Suite was inspired by Blake's trip to Venice for the Biennale of 2007. Each piece in the portfolio is a jewel of his trademark collage style. Blake combines traditional images of the city on the lagoon with visual excerpts from vintage childrens' books, photographs, postcards, as well as details from works of the old masters. This visual witticism is teamed with a palette of turquoise, gold and the grey of the stones of Venice to create a surreal fairytale vision of the city. Blake juxtaposes the baroque grandeur of the architectural icons of Venice with giant penguins, wartime bombers, Edwardian rowers and icebergs to name a few. The end result is a portfolio of works that are playful, imaginative, beautiful, immensely varied and representative of Sir Peter Blake's unique vision.

Camping 2 is a mischievous mixture of boy scouts around a campfire and prep school boys sitting on their trunks. This eminently British scene is set in front of the grand Piazza della Paglia bridge.

Silkscreen print with part glaze on 400gsm Somerset tub sized paper. This is just for the individual 'Camping 2' print and not the portfolio set.
