Description

William Scott (1913-1989) was a British-Irish abstract painter from Northern Ireland. Scott is known for his abstract still life and landscape paintings, particularly of household kitchen objects on flattened tabletops. This print comes from Scott's 1953 print series, The Coronation Series, corresponding with the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The print's subject, Busby, refers to the traditional tall fur hat worn by some troops in the United Kingdom.
