Artist Biography

Born in Durham and trained at Coventry Schools of Art and at the Royal College of Art, Arthur Henderson Hall went on to win the Prix de Rome for engraving in 1931. Painter in watercolours, printmaker, book illustrator, and glass designer, Hall was elected a full member of the Royal Society of Painter-Etchers and Engravers in 1961 and a member of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1970.

Like his fellow Rome scholars, Freeth and Cowern, Hall was too young to benefit from the commercial boom of the etching market and few of his prints were editioned.

Further than this, he was not prolific as a printmaker. His outstanding figurative etchings rarely appear on the market today.
