This wood engraving was done in July 1976 and shows the landscape around my home in East Alstead, New Hampshire. At the center of the print and near the left edge can be seen a church steeple. My home and studio is across the street from the church. The body of water is Lake Warren and the view of this rural and remarkably beautiful area is from Prentice Hill looking east. The engraved woodblock is 8" x 4".

Old New Hampshire Hills
When you purchase Old New Hampshire Hills by Randy Miller, you are acquiring an original work of art, engraved by hand in wood and printed by the artist. It is not a photographic or digital reproduction.
A note about Editions: The prints are not strictly limited in number. This is due to the durability of boxwood, my choice of wood for engraving. It is an extremely dense hardwood capable of yielding thousands of prints with no noticeable deterioration. I therefore number my prints in Editions of 200, succeeding editions denoted by a Roman numeral “II”, “III” and so on. This allows for continued functional use of an increasingly scarce wood.
The artist uses black, oil-based ink on smooth, Welsh cream-colored paper called basingwerk. The print is signed, titled and numbered in pencil by the artist and enclosed in a clear plastic sleeve. The print is suitable for matting and framing. Shipped via USPS Priority Mail.
