Lot 328: George Stubbs, Chestnut Horse Eclipse, Framed Sporting Print
This framed colour print is a reproduction of George Stubbs’ portrait of the celebrated racehorse Eclipse.

The print is an offset lithograph on paper, housed within a tan card mount and a dark-stained wood frame featuring a gilt inner slip. Small printed text is present in the lower right margin. Two adhesive labels, one white with B B and one orange with 328, are affixed to the glass.
