Giclée Print on Cotton Smooth Rag - Signed and numbered

Zermatt (Set of 6) by Peter Doig, produced in 2022, is a limited edition series of six giclée prints on cotton smooth rag paper. These works explore the theme of alpine landscapes, specifically inspired by the famous Swiss skiing destination, Zermatt.

Each print in this series measures 114 × 80 cm (44.9 × 31.5 in) and is signed and numbered by the artist. Doig's work here captures the essence of winter sports and mountain life, from skiers to the rugged terrain, and highlights his ability to evoke mood and emotion through color and form.

Painting becomes interesting when it becomes timeless.
- Peter Doig

Peter Doig is a highly acclaimed figurative painter, with works that often depict landscapes or human figures inspired by photography – be it his own or sourced - and imbued with his own personal experiences. Such personal objects as canoes feature heavily in Doig’s works (canoes are a nod to his time spent living in Canada) and although his works are figurative, they often retain a sense of dream-like mysticism due to their deeply reflective and intimate effect – White Canoe, an oil on canvas painting, encapsulates this mysticism perfectly. Further highlighting Doig’s autobiographical imprint upon his works is his Lapeyrouse Wall piece; this painting was created after Doig’s move to Trinidad and features the crumbling wall of Lapeyrouse cemetery, so named after the island’s first sugar estate founder and a stark reminder of the colonial history of Trinidad. Influenced by artists including Monet, Munch and Klimt, Doig’s art is in the vein of post-impressionism with his own added flair. (Artist website)
