McBean purchased his moated Tudor home, Flemings Hall, Suffolk, in 1964 and spent several years renovating and decorating it to his taste. McBean is shown here lying on his mock Tudor bed, which was in fact constructed by McBean with various pieces of Jacobean oak. The gates to Flemings Hall covered in frost appeared on one of the two designs for McBean's 1964 Christmas card. Published in Harpers & Queen, February 1983.
Card size: 125mm x 175mm
Images are printed in their original proportions, within a white border.
