About the Item

A finely detailed 19th-century hand-colored lithograph depicting the famed English racehorse George Frederick (foaled 1871) — winner of the 1874 Epsom Derby. Drawn and lithographed by Charles Loraine Cobby (British, active mid-to-late 19th century), one of the period’s foremost equestrian artists, celebrated for his anatomically precise and noble portrayals of thoroughbreds. This authentic Victorian print retains its original companion pedigree chart, documenting George Frederick’s distinguished lineage and bloodline through renowned sires such as Orlando and Touchstone. The pairing of portrait and lineage sheet makes this a particularly desirable set among collectors of sporting art and British horse-racing history. Printed on lightly aged wove paper with deckled edges and warm toning, the piece displays the subtle patina prized by connoisseurs of original lithography. Artist: Charles Loraine Cobby (British, 19th c.) Title: George Frederick (1871) Medium: Hand-colored lithograph on wove paper Includes: Original companion lineage/pedigree sheet (two sheets total) Origin: England, c. 1875 Condition: Excellent antique condition; gentle age toning and minimal foxing consistent with age Dimensions Unframed: 13.75" Wide 19.5" Deep Styling Ideas Frame both sheets side by side in a walnut, oak, or giltwood frame with a cream or hunter-green mat for a classic English study or tack-room display. For a modern heritage aesthetic, float-mount in black lacquered frames to echo Ralph Lauren’s equestrian interiors. Pair with vintage silver stirrup cups, riding trophies, or English leather armchairs for a rich layered look. Provenance Significance George Frederick was among the most celebrated British Thoroughbreds of his time, achieving Derby fame in 1874. Cobby’s rendering captures the refinement and discipline of the breed, while the companion pedigree sheet underscores his aristocratic heritage — a genuine artifact of Victorian sporting culture.
