A carefully structured tangle of line and movement, finitely detailed, Lodge's engraving is an example of the beauty that came from the experimental ideal of the Atelier 17. Lodge once said, "The intensity and excitement in the Atelier came from Hayter’s insistence on using controlled ‘experiments’ to create unforeseen images. ‘If you already know what it is going to look like, there is no point in doing it.’" For more information on the artist, please see our biography, above.
