Description
This lot consists of a hand painted oil on canvas rendered in style of the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (1874-1965). Painting signed at the lower right corner: WSC
Winston Churchill was introduced to painting during a family holiday in June 1915, when his political career was at a low ebb. He continued this hobby into his old age, painting over 500 pictures of subjects such as his goldfish pond at Chartwell and the landscapes and buildings of Marrakesh. He sold some works, but he also gave away many of the works that he self-deprecatingly described as "daubs" as gifts.

Unframed 19.6"x15.7" (50x40cm)
Framed 25.1"x21.2" (64x54cm)
