Two carriage scenes; “Christmas Eve. The top of the Hill” and “News of Waterloo! On the Great North Road: June 1815”. Framed lithographs. After WRIGHT, George (England, 1860-1944). George Wright was one of the leading equestrian artists of his time, specialising in hunting, carts and carriages, horses, races, etc. A self-taught artist like the rest of his family, little is known about his life. In 1925 he was in the pay of Ackermanns (England) and Grand Central Galleries (New York, United States of America), two very important lithograph publishing companies. His work is preserved in important private collections and institutions such as the Walker Art Gallery (UK), etc.
