Martin F Hamlyn [signed in pencil] [n.d. c.1920] Woodcut, sheet 195 x 165mm (7¾ x 6½"), with large margins Glued into mount on top edge. King's Bench Walk, Inner Temple, London. Martin Frederic Hamlyn (1886–1966) was a commercial artist known for his striking travel posters, finely detailed book and brochure illustrations, and atmospheric paintings in oils and watercolours. A member of several leading sketch clubs, including the Wapping Group of Artists, he frequently depicted Thames-side scenes that capture a vanished London of wharves and river traffic, alongside intimate café interiors, domestic scenes, pastoral subjects, and a lesser-known series of woodcuts produced mainly in the 1920s.
