Moy Red Ochre

‘Moy’ (The Argory) c.1875 Little is known about this small-scale print found at The Argory, just outside Moy in Northern Ireland. The surviving fragment is estimated to be late-19th century in origin, and was printed using diluted watercolours rather than a more conventional, substantial ink or even opaque paint. This slightly broken effect, combined with the shadowing seen within the loose geometric pattern, gives a life to the design that would be difficult to achieve straight from the drawing board.
