Limited edition seriolithograph titled Sweet Music by British contemporary artist Gary Benfield (b. 1965), created in 2009. The composition depicts an elegant female figure seated beside a harp, rendered in Benfield’s distinctive impressionistic style with flowing brushwork and soft atmospheric color. Warm tones of gold, cream, and rose create a romantic ambiance while the harp’s gilded structure provides a striking vertical element within the composition.

 

Benfield is known for his expressive figurative works inspired by classical themes, music, and the human form. His prints and originals are widely collected and frequently feature musicians, dancers, and intimate interior scenes executed with rich textures and layered color.

 

This example is a limited edition seriolithograph enhanced with gold leaf, numbered 119 from an edition of 195. The work is signed by the artist in pencil in the lower margin and includes an accompanying gallery information sheet from Art on Royal.
