Gertrude Hermes

Gertrude Hermes is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Gertrude Hermes carved and printed bold, graphic images rooted in the English countryside. In Stonehenge (1959) she turns the ancient stones into a jagged silhouette, crisp against a pale sky—an uncluttered snapshot of a place that has stood for millennia. Her work sits squarely in mid-20th-century English printmaking: clean lines, strong shapes, no fuss. Tap Stonehenge to walk around the print and see every sharp edge.
