The Sailor's Arms, 2013

The Sailors' Arms is a signed limited edition digital print on Archival Da Vinci soft-textured 315gsm by Peter Blake.

Internationally acclaimed for his eccentricity and widely admired for his lovelorn lyricism, Dylan Thomas’s groundbreaking 1954 play for voices, Under Milk Wood, has long resonated with the founding father of British Pop Art, Peter Blake. This fascination, spanning almost thirty years, has transformed the play into a “green-leaved sermon on the innocence of men,” filling the spaces of Blake’s studio. It has also inspired repeated listening to broadcast recordings and several pilgrimages to Thomas’s creative refuge at Laugharne, Carmarthenshire.

In addition to the Under Milk Wood Portfolio, we are delighted to present 'The Sailor's Arms', 'The Afternoon Buzzes', and 'Mrs Organ Morgan's General Shop'. The Sailor's Arms is a signed original print by Peter Blake, created to accompany the De Luxe Edition of Dylan Thomas’s Under Milk Wood (published by Enitharmon Editions), while The Afternoon Buzzes and Mrs Organ Morgan's General Shop were produced to accompany the Fine Binding Edition.
