Clayton Pond (American, b. 1941)

Derby Dandies. Signed and dated "Clayton Pond/ © 1981" l.r., titled and inscribed "...P.P." l.l., with a sketch of the Churchill Downs steeples to the left of the title. Serigraph on Arches paper (edition 175, 25 Artist's Proofs, 10 Hors de Commerce, 7 Printer's Proofs),image size 24 5/8 x 36 1/8 in., framed. Condition: Not examined out of frame.

N.B. In 1981 Clayton Pond "was commissioned to commemorate the 107th running of the Kentucky Derby with a large painting, a poster, and this limited edition print. For his subject matter, the artist bypassed the race horses and their riders and chose to work instead with the brightly colored and patterned jockey silks hanging in the silk room. Each print has a remark, hand-drawn by the artist, of the famous steeples of Churchill Downs appearing in the lower left corner." (1)
