The Story.
Bob has been working on clocks for over 26 years. Brought up in the
care of Dr Barnardo’s Homes where the philosophy was to teach the children a craft they could earn a living by, he says, "Working with my hands became second nature for me.” Since he began working with clocks, he has restored over 18,000 movements. Bob now concentrates purely on the restoration of antique clocks and says - “Sounds silly I know, but when I see an interesting clock at auction, my hands actually tingle and itch with the thought that I am going to handle it and restore the works, I find myself rubbing my hands together with excitement at the prospect.”
PRODUCT INFORMATION
All prints are all archival, meaning they will last for well over 75 years. Most of his prints are reproduced on Hahnemühle Fine Art photo paper, regarded as one of the best photographic papers in the world. The majority of prints are printed using Giclée printing which reproduces incredible detail and brilliant colour, and has a higher resolution than traditional lithographic printing. All Limited Edition prints come with a Certificate of Authentication stating the print title, edition number, date of printing and are signed by the artist and stamped with his photographer's seal. The print itself is also titled, numbered and signed in pencil by the artist. All prints come with a pair of print handling gloves and a “Handling & Framing Your Print” instruction sheet.
Print sizes are quoted as the edge to edge dimensions of the paper itself, including the border around the image. Borders will vary according to the image dimensions, but will typically be between 1 to 2 ½ inches.
Each print will have a strict limitation to its edition run, plus a maximum of 2APs (Artist Proofs) marked 1/AP and 2/AP.
