John Alfred Wheeler (British, 1821-1903) THE MATCH showing the finish of a match race oil on canvas, gilt and wood frame slightly chipped on exterior edges, overall 38 by 53cm Label to backboard reads The Tryon Gallery Ltd., London. Notes to backboard state: "The picture shows the finish of a match - or race - being won by a colt owned by Mr Pierre Lavilland of the USA, who also owned Iroquois, winner of the 1881 Derby. However, this information is incorrect, the colours are not those of the American owner. The label also suggests the colours of the second appear to be those of Mr Laurence Galway. "J.A.Wheeler of Bath was a well-known painter of Hunting and Racing subjects in the latter part of the last century [19th]. He exhibited at the R.B.A. in Suffolk Street in 1875. One of the most outstanding examples of his work - Fred Archer on Ormonde - may be seen at Boodle's in London. 12th October 1962." Condition is fair to good with wear and damage, losses to frame, the heads of both jockeys look to have been repainted/repaired at some point, reverse is sealed Provenance: from the Lester Piggott Collection.
