Grongar Hill
PIPER, John
John Piper shows how just a few materials – scraps of torn paper and a few lines of ink – can be used to create a scene of real movement and energy. This collage of clouds scudding across the ancient site of Grongar Hill knits Piper's interest in abstraction with his passion for landscape and history.
