Running Suite

Sir Peter Blake CBE, RA (b1932)

A giclee print with screenprinted finish, from the portfolio “Running Suite” commissioned to commemorate 30 years of the Great North Run.  Peter Blake’s mother was born in South Shields (where the race ends), so this is his link to the famous race.

Each print is signed in pencil and numbered from the edition of 75 and has come straight from the folio box, never framed.

Measurements: 42 x 35 cm sheet size

Condition: Never framed, excellent condition.
