'Nicholson’s graphic output was far from small; he made a number of linocuts in the late 1920s and early 1930s, a group of drypoints in the late 1940s and early 1950s and finally, in his most prolific period, more than one hundred and thirty etchings between 1965 and 1968.
'The majority were done in a concentrated period of activity in 1967. What prompted him to return to printmaking in 1964-5 is not entirely clear; François Lafranca thinks he had been asked to provide a couple of drypoint illustrations for a book. The drypoints were quite large however, casting some doubt on this hypothesis and in any event the plates were soon abandoned. At Lafranca’s suggestion Nicholson turned his hand to etching instead.'
Nicholas Lott, Larkhall Fine Art Ltd., May 2007.
