Unicorn Among the Blooms, an etching by Bruce Thomson in white line on black, a unicorn among trumpet flowers

Unicorn Among the Blooms sets the mythical unicorn, an old emblem of Scotland as well as of purity, among flowering forms.

The wide, low plate lets Bruce run his line through leaf, bloom and beast in a single decorative sweep. The unicorn recurs elsewhere in his work; this plate belongs among his mythology etchings.
