This Edwardian sporting art piece is an original print entitled ‘An Irish Point-to-Point’ by Charlie Johnson Payne, known as Snaffles, dating from 1910. Printed on cream paper with brown equestrian figures, margin vignettes, horse jumping, and race course scenes, the artwork is heavily hand-coloured in watercolour and further titled ‘The Big Bank and Drain.’ The composition includes visible handwritten pencil signatures, multiple mounted jockeys negotiating fences, and various small marginal sketches surrounding a central action scene. The paper is protected behind a clear glass pane within a flat black ebonised wooden frame with simple straight mouldings. The item measures 52.5 cm high, 75.5 cm wide, and 1.5 cm deep. Suitable for a gentleman's library, study, or hallway, the framed wall art hangs above a sideboard, mantelpiece, or desk to add traditional equestrian character to an interior. The muted cream and brown palette coordinates easily with classic wooden furniture and traditional neutral wall finishes. The mounted scene provides a focal point for equestrian enthusiasts and collectors of sporting prints.

FAQs

Created by artist Charles Johnson Payne under the pseudonym Snaffles, these early 20th-century prints documented British and Irish equestrian culture, hunting, and military life with characteristic humour and observational detail.

These works were predominantly produced using photogravure or colour lithography techniques on heavy woven paper, often featuring hand-coloured elements and integral printed remarque vignettes within the borders.

Authentic period prints frequently include an embossed blindstampsuch as a bit or saddle motifa pencil signature in the lower margin, and characteristic satirical margin sketches surrounding the main image.

Equestrian prints pair effectively with dark timber panelling, leather upholstery, and brass accents in traditional studies, or can be incorporated into a modern gallery wall to add historical texture.

Framed paper prints should be mounted using acid-free materials and placed behind UV-protective glass, positioned away from direct sunlight and areas of high humidity to prevent discolouration and foxing.
