An Edwardian framed print titled 'A Point-to-Point' by Charlie Johnson Payne, known as Snaffles, dates to 1910. The printed artwork is heavily hand-coloured in shades of grey and red, featuring multiple equestrian vignettes, hand-titled captions, an additional ink and watercolour remarque, and a watercolour signature and inscription. The paper print sits behind glass in an original moulded dark wood frame with a white slip mount. Visible details include corners joined at mitres, a subtle wood grain finish on the dark timber, and distinct handwritten text beneath the central imagery. The piece measures 47 cm high, 61 cm wide, and 2 cm deep. Traditional English country house interiors provide a fitting home for this sporting artwork today. Hang the framed print above a sideboard in a dining room, across a panelled hallway wall, or within a study alongside other equestrian works. The neutral grey background and bright red hunting coats coordinate easily with traditional wooden furniture and patterned textiles. Professional picture wire attached to the reverse allows for secure wall hanging.

Equestrian sporting prints gained immense popularity in Britain during the 19th and early 20th centuries, documenting fox hunting, point-to-point races, and steeplechases. Artists such as Charlie Johnson Payne, known as Snaffles, captured both the technical detail and humours of country pursuits.

Prints from this period were typically created using lithography or gravure methods on heavy paper stock, often finished with hand-applied watercolour tinting. Frames were commonly made of stained dark oak or walnut with plain or gilded slip mounts.

Authentic prints feature distinct plate impression marks, crisp typographic captions, period-appropriate paper age tones, and artist blindstamps or signatures. Original colouration exhibits subtle tonal shifts rather than modern dot-matrix printing.

These historical artworks work well when hung above sideboards, mounted along hallway walls, or integrated into gallery wall layouts alongside minimalist black-and-white photography for visual contrast.

Keep framed prints out of direct sunlight to prevent fading of the pigments, and avoid high humidity environments to prevent foxing on the paper. Clean the outer frame glass with a dry microfibre cloth without spraying liquids directly onto the frame.
