Internationally acclaimed for its eccentricity and adored for its lovelorn lyricism, Dylan Thomas’s groundbreaking 1954 ‘play for voices’, Under Milk Wood, has long echoed in the imagination of the founding father of British Pop Art, Sir Peter Blake. An obsession that has spanned almost thirty years, this ‘greenleaved sermon on the innocence of men’ has filled the spaces of Blake’s studio, played and replayed on broadcast recordings, and prompted several pilgrimages to Thomas’s creative refuge at Laugharne, Carmarthenshire.

The resulting 110 watercolours, pencil portraits and collages comprise one of his most distinctive and significant single bodies of work, culminating in the exhibition Peter Blake illustrates Dylan Thomas’s Under Milk Wood (until 16 March) at National Museum Wales, that also celebrates the centenary of the writer's birth.

We have a collection of beautiful, signed limited edition prints from this new series on show at our Stow on the Wold gallery, until 8 April. Alongside we will be showing other iconic prints by Peter Blake, including his Fag Packets series, The Second Real Target, Sources of Pop Art, and many more.
