The Wanderer, Limited Edition Print
£195.00The Wanderer by PF Bennett is inspired by both the song by Dion (1988) and memories of growing up in the North West.
Artist Paul F Bennett describes his inspiration for this artwork:“‘The Wanderer Above the Mist’ was originally painted by Casper D Friedrich in 1818 (approximately) and became one of the most popular paintings of the 19th Century Romanticism period. By the 20th Century, however, things had changed somewhat with those gentle mists replaced by the smoke of a thousand Northern chimneys.Then in 1962, along came Dion from the USA to take The Wanderer all the way into the UK top ten.’They call me the Wanderer, Yeah the Wanderer. I roam around, around, around, around’.”This is a framed limited edition print of 25 by Lymm-based artist PF Bennett.

Pictures of Matchstick Men Limited Edition Print
£195.00Pictures of Matchstick Men Limited Edition Print by PF Bennett is inspired by both the song by Status Quo (Jan ’68) and the artist’s memory of meeting L.S. Lowry. A watercolour and pencil illustration by Lymm-based artist, PF Bennett.
In Bennett’s words: “Francis Rossi allegedly wrote most of this song ‘Pictures of Matchstick Men’ whilst sitting in the smallest room of his flat. It was a good move as it provided The Quo with their very first top ten hit, reaching number 8 in the January of ’68. It was the start of a very long career. However, by this time Laurence Stephen Lowry was drawing towards the close of his, but still very much painting his pictures of matchstick men.”
Bennett studied at Salford School of Art when he met Mr L. S. Lowry. Still treasuring Lowry’s autograph today, PF Bennett suggests that this meeting may have been the catalyst to his artistic inspiration.
