We are pleased to be offering a fine group of Norman Lindsay works from American art collector Stephen Korshak. The group includes 16 etchings, a pen and ink drawing, watercolour and a small woodcut (lots 70-88).

The works were originally from the collection of well known American Illustrator Roy Krenkel (1918-1983). Each work is presented in an archival matboard ‘window’ package with protective Mylar interleaving.

Notable etchings include the mysterious and alluring ‘Enter the Magicians’ and Lindsay’s epic and endlessly intriguing ‘Self-Portrait.’
