Debussy in Jersey - Miniature Sheet
£5.00
A miniature sheet from our 'Debussy in Jersey ' issue. Local artist Will Bertram has illustrated the miniature sheet to incorporate excerpts of the score for La Mer into the background. The style of the wave featured on the miniature sheet takes inspiration from Hokusai’s iconic Under the Wave off Kanagawa, also known as The Great Wave. Debussy collected a selection of Japanese artefacts during his time as a student of Rome between 1885-1887. One such piece was a print of The Great Wave, which Debussy kept on his studio wall.
All of our mint/cto products are carefully prepared by our own team and supplied in glassine bags to ensure you receive them in pristine condition. Selvedges are retained where possible.
