A Searle
Royal Richmond Horse Show, c.1940 Underground poster design by A Searle

c.1940

About the Item

A Searle Royal Richmond Horse Show c.1940 26 x 30 cm Signed to lower right Provenance: Family of A. E. Halliwell Little is known about A Searle beyond the fact that he studied under A E Halliwell, though the fact that Halliwell collected this painting suggests that he thought highly of his student. This playful Underground poster design advertises the Royal Richmond Horse Show. It features a horse and flags with an abstracted jockey. The whole composition is somewhat musical, with colourful lines behind the text evoking a musical stave and the body of the jockey calling to mind musical notes. Painted in the lower right in muted greens is the iconic Underground roundel, signalling the poster's original purpose.

Tales of the Arabian Nights with Flying Carpet - Random House Gustaf Tenggren
By Gustaf Tenggren
Located in Miami, FL
Gustaf Tenggren- Attributed This masterfully designed and graphic interpretation of the Arabian Nights saga features a monumental figural profile while small figures float above on a magic carpet. Gustaf Tenggren (American 1896-1970) Attributed - We are not certain if Tenggren did this work. There is stylistic evidence to support Tenggren. It's the brilliance factor of how he assembles all the elements of the work and composes it into a cogent and readable form. This says Tenggen. As a former New York advertising agency art director, I have seen artists work in different styles. Usually this is not the case but great artist can do it. Their styles can change but the brilliance remains. Untitled Untitled 1957 Gouache on illustration board - Unframed Not signed 9 x 7.25 live - 10.5 x 9.5 board Original book illustration...
