About this work
A Glasgow artist with architectural training, Bone began to make prints in 1898. One of his earliest drypoints, Spring at Cardross already demonstrates Bone’s brilliant draftsmanship and atmospheric use of plate-tone. In abbreviated strokes, the artist described a panoramic view of the landscape of Dumbartonshire, Scotland.
