Winner of the 1954 Derby Stakes - NEVER SAY DIE (LESTER PIGGOTT up) - Oleographic Vintage Equestrian Picture
________________________
DESCRIPTION
This vintage oleographic print depicts Never Say Die, the horse that won the 1954 Derby Stakes, ridden by the legendary jockey Lester Piggott. The artwork captures the elegance of the thoroughbred standing tall on the racecourse, with Piggott mounted in racing silks. The scene is rendered in soft greens and blues, evoking the English countryside and the prestigious race.
The print is framed in a classic dark wood frame with a golden inner border that enhances the vintage appeal. This equestrian piece is evoking a moment of triumph from the mid-20th century.
The frame appears to be original. It is glazed, ready to hang, and measures 12 1/4” tall and 14 3/4” wide (31.1cm x 37.7cm). The mount opening measures 6 3/4” x 8 3/4” (17.2cm x 22.2cm).
