EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of Anthony St Leger, a prominent figure in the 18th century. Born in 1731 or 1732 and passing away in 1786, St Leger was not only recognized as a soldier but also held the esteemed position of being a Member of Parliament. However, his most enduring legacy lies in his role as the founder of the renowned St. Leger Stakes Horse Race. The painting by Thomas Gainsborough captures St Leger's dignified presence and commanding aura. His confident gaze and regal attire reflect his status as an influential figure during that era. This artwork is featured in H. Clifford Smith's book "Buckingham Palace, Its Furniture, Decoration And History" published back in 1931. St Leger's contribution to horse racing cannot be overstated. The prestigious St. Leger Stakes race continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide even today, more than two centuries after its inception. Ken Welsh has masterfully captured this historical moment through this stunning illustration which beautifully encapsulates both the essence of Anthony St Leger himself and the significance of his eponymous horse race. Whether you are an avid fan of horse racing or simply appreciate artistry that immortalizes important figures from history, this print is sure to make for a compelling addition to any collection or display space
