These two depictions consist of machine-woven silk with thousands of tiny, lustrous textile threads and portray the Oxford & Cambridge Boat Race. These images are highly detailed and came onto the market as so-called Stevengraphs.
The set consists of 2 images: "Are you Ready" and "The Final Spurt" and belong together inseparably. Some foxing on the passe-partout.
The UV light has had some effect on the colors of the rowers, yet the oars are still blue, and yellow and red colors are also visible.
The frames feature beautiful Victorian woodcarving.
The entire set is still in good, authentic condition.
It is not a drawing/watercolor as indicated, but the forum does not offer a choice for "silk".
Most likely, the corresponding original advertising labels are tucked into the back of the "Are you Ready" list, because: this list is heavier than the other one, you can feel something inside, small staple-like things are sticking through it, the back is different from the other one, redone, and this was very often put in the back of the list.
