This is the Place Online Sale

This Is The Place is a lithograph on museum paper by contemporary fine artist Elizabeth Waggett. The print depicts the humble worker bee—the long-standing symbol of Waggett’s home town of Manchester. Encased in a circle of gold foil, Waggett’s print reminds us just how precious the bee is to our planetary eco-system, while also symbolising the eternal cycle of life.

Waggett is well-known for producing highly detailed, black and white illustrations, which she lifts with layers of hand-embellished gold leaf to challenge our ideas of value in consumer society. For This Is The Place, Waggett replaces her use of gold leaf with lithograph and foil, to create an equally beautiful print at a more accessible price-point.

From a limited edition of 100, each one signed and numbered by the artist, This Is The Place is the perfect find for the first time print-purchaser — or anyone with an eye for gorgeous detail.
