Description
A limited edition color lithograph after a watercolor by artist Ian Weatherhead, depicting a horse racing scene at Cheltenham Racecourse. The composition features a distorted, wide-angle perspective of the track, showing horses in mid-gallop on the green turf, a dense crowd of spectators, and the characteristic grandstands of the course. Branding for Smurfit and The Tote is visible on trackside barriers. The work is executed in an expressive style with a vibrant palette of greens, blues, yellows, and reds. The print is housed in a cream-colored mat and a black wooden frame with a gold-toned inner fillet.
The lower margin of the print bears a hand-written signature in pencil at the bottom left reading Ian Weatherhead. Adjacent to the signature is the hand-written edition number 8/300, indicating this is the 8th impression from a total limited edition of 300.
