Signed Snaffles Grand National Print, Worst View in Europe

About the Item

Signed Snaffles Equestrian Print, Worst View In Europe. Finest View In Europe & Worst View In Europe are most probably Snaffles most famous pair of equestrian pictures. On offer here is the titled lithograph 'Worst View In Europe' with subtitle 'Oh Murther! The dhrink died out of me and the wrong side of Bechers'. The picture is signed in pencil by the artist, bottom left-hand corner. The picture depicts the 63rd Grand National that took place at Aintree near Liverpool, on 29th March 1901, best remembered for having taken place in a snowstorm. Arthur Nightingall riding 'Grudon', the eventual winner by four lengths, is approaching Becher's Brook, there is a loose grey horse to his right and in front a horse is taking a terrible fall at the fence. The remarque, bottom right, shows a first aid man waving a flag over a lying supine rider, whilst a policeman holds the reins of the unfortunate jockeys horse. Arthur Nightingall gave credit to his victory to the genius of owner-trainer Bletsoe who took the decision to pack Grudon's hooves with butter to prevent snow clogging in them. This Charles "Snaffles" Johnson Payne (1884 1967) picture is in good original condition and framed in original black wooden frame with the Snaffles blindstamp (a bridle bit) above the signature. Dimensions: Height 23 cm / 9 " Width 49 cm / 19 1⁄2" Framed height 45.5 cm / 18" Framed width 69 cm / 27 " Framed depth 1.5 cm / "

  • Junichiro Sekino Signed Limited Edition Japanese Woodblock Print Rooftop View
    By Junichiro Sekino
    Located in Studio City, CA
    A wonderfully composed and richly colored, limited edition woodblock print by famed Japanese artist Junichiro Sekino. This relatively large print, which is of a rooftop view of a temple shrine in Japan (perhaps Nagasaki as he did a similar print in 1975 but perhaps Kyoto or Tokyo) is hand pencil signed, sealed / stamped in red, numbered (18/128), and dated (1972). The image is likely from Sekino's coveted rooftop series that he did featuring various rooftop patterns from around the world including Japan and Italy. An exquisite and rare / hard-to-find work. Junichiro Sekino was largely considered, along with Kiyoshi Saito, to be one of Japan's paramount 20th-century master print artists. Both were prominent leaders of the Sosaku Hanga movement. Sekino's works can be found in many museums including: The Museum of Modern Art, N. Y., the Art Institute Chicago, the Museum of Fine Art, Boston, the British Museum, and the Portland Art Museum among many other Fine museums throughout the world. Would be a fantastic addition to any modern Japanese print...
