Trevelyan was a leader of the etching revolution that began in the 1960s. As head of the Etching Department at the Royal College of Art in London, his students included David Hockney and Norman Ackroyd. Trevelyan's subject matter is often dreamy, and he achieves highly-detailed, textural surfaces in his prints.

Nice impressions; the first with some marks in the margins.
