Three Musicians

This hand colored etching by Elyse Ashe Lord measures 15 3/4 x 16 1/2 inches and is pencil signed and numbered. Elyse Lord was a British artist, although her work shows a strong Asian influence, she never actually traveled the continent. Her inspiration instead came from Chinese literature, artwork and her own imagination. Her unique style uses fine drypoint lines and delicate, yet vibrant colors to create images that that have a serene, almost dreamlike quality.
