ALAN JORDAN
1898-1982

Australian linocut printer.

This is all (!) the information I could find on this Australian printer.

These Geese in pond print humorously titled "Scandall".


The Parrots and Drinking Pelicans prints I borroughed from Josef Lebovic Gallery in Kensington Australia (http://www.joseflebovic.com/). The are both for sale.

Maybe more will show now, keep me informed if you know of other examples by this printer.

  1. Completely different from the other birds we've been looking at recently. Nice find.

  3. Yes he'is quite something isn't he ? Hopefully more prints will show up one day. And maybe some more details on his work and life.

  4. The clean flat areas of colour are interesting, too. The ducks could almost be English but the colours aren't delicate enough. The Australians are different!
