Very crisp and colorful Mid 19th C. English horse racing print.
From the famed hand of H. Aiken, with incredible detailing, depth of field, and - if you look very closely - allegory of the time.
22" wide by 18" tall by .5" deep.
Document itself is very bright with remarkably preserved colors - red, orange, black, white, blue, yellow - and every shade of green and gray and rose.
Presented in a modern frame of very nicely finished wood with yellow gilt trim, with a crisp white museum style mat - offsets the patina of the document beautifully.
In keeping with Aesop's fable, Fox and Crow's Motto is "Beware of False Flattery!" So, with each listing we offer a true confession about the item...
Living in Piedmont Virginia, equestrian steeplechase and hunts of several varieties are a part of the local culture.
While there are many fine 18th and 19th C. prints, in the sporting category Aiken images stand apart, and this is a great one - both for its subject matter as well as its condition.
And, the modern frame and crisp museum mat are perfect - making this one ready for another 200 years!
