    John Nash
    John Nash
    English , 1893 - 1977
    Stay up to date with this artist
    Born in 1893, John Nash established his artistic reputation as a printmaker at a young age with the progressive London Group and Camden Town Group of artists immediately before the Great War. He was an Official War Artist, and thus it was only in 1919 after the war had ended that his first prints, some of them wood engravings, were produced.

    The following year he was a founder member of the Society of Wood Engravers and during the next 15 years he produced approximately 135 wood engravings before abandoning the medium. However Nash continued to make prints in different media including lithographs, etchings and engravings on metal, his subject matter often rural landscapes. Nash died in 1977.

    These exquisite John Nash prints have been printed from the original wood blocks in our very own Goldmark Atelier.

    For a span of two decades, Nash was probably the most competent wood engraver working in this country. As an independent printmaker and illustrator he was responsible for dozens of celebrated publications.

    The Goldmark Gallery has acquired directly from the artist’s estate over 70 of the 90 or so blocks Nash made in his lifetime, with permission to print new editions from them. Many of these blocks were commissioned solely for book illustration and have never been individually editioned; some have never been published at all.

    The wood blocks have been treated with consummate skill and professionalism by master printer Jan Wilkinson of the Goldmark Atelier. Her standards have been exacting: some of the very faintest of Nash’s cuts have never been printed so crisply before – including those printed by Nash himself.

    All prints editioned by Goldmark bear the Goldmark Atelier blind stamp (bottom left) and a stamped John Nash signature.

    Astonishing place. Driving home I realised it was probably the best experience I've ever had in a shop/gallery. I'll be filling my house with their artworks for years to come. A unique place.

    Goldmark have the most astonishing range, from the very affordable to the upper echelons of the market. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and really helpful. For anyone wanting to start a serious art collection within whatever budget this could be the best place to start.

    There is no other gallery like Goldmark. I'm always amazed at both the stock they hold and their ability to regularly source really quite special pieces of art. That, with their friendly, knowledgeable & utterly unpretentious style makes them a delight to visit & to buy from.

    Their delivery service is 100% reliable and the breadth of work displayed on their website pretty amazing. Above all, unlike other such dealers, I have never been under any pressure to buy. I recommend you give them a try.

    We first visited Goldmark approximately 6 years ago and immediately liked the informality compared to previous gallery experiences. It’s a great place to start or build on your collection. Everyone at Goldmark is very friendly, knowledgeable and will give you as much or as little time as you wish.

    We have bought prints and pots from Goldmark over many years and our house is the richer for the collections we have built up. The framing and delivery service are faultless.

    Their exhibitions are always prepared with great care, with videos and catalogs accompanying the shows. I have not been able to visit the gallery in person but all the Goldmark team is splendid and highly professional, which makes the virtual shopping a great experience.
