‘Mr Filkins in the Desert’  is one of nine Official 90th Birthday Collector’s Edition Prints, celebrating Quentin Blake’s 90th Birthday, Friday 16th December 2022, from his Official publishers, Aquarelle Publishing Ltd. There are only 90 editions worldwide.  The images have been taken from original watercolours from some of Quentin Blakes’s most loved picture books.

Each illustration is beautifully presented on heavyweight 315gsm cotton rag paper in an attractive off-white double mount complete with Artist Information, Certificate of Authenticity and is individually numbered and hand embossed as an authentication of quality. 

Please Note: The edition number shown in the thumbnail above is not necessarily the one which is available.

Frame Details: We use sustainable wooden frames and glass, not fibreboard and acrylic which typically you find in 'off the shelf' frames. Unlike acrylic, glass does not lose its clarity over time and can be easily and safely cleaned. We have been successfully shipping ready to hang frames containing glass since we opened in 2005.
