Bolling & Withington 'M' 

Rare. In Bolling & Withington's catalogue raisonne of Laura Knight's prints "To our knowledge this lithograph is almost an 'unknown piece' and has not been mentioned or described except in the auction where it was sold a few years ago. It is, however in the collection of the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery of Modern Art in Dublin and another in the National Gallery of Canada. The image, when seen at [life]size is impressive...".

Laura Knight's four lithographs of which Pas de Deux is the largest date from around 1924/25. The few recorded examples were printed on 'newsprint quality' paper. The exception would appear to be the unique proof impression of Pas de Deux printed on heavy wove that was with Campbell Fine Art.
