Pretty cute.

The Amick’s I was only somewhat aware of - I know the piece but did not know an artist.

My sister (RIP) bought me a big portrait of MOW by Helen Hayes (LOL), with latter-day groom Will Harbut. Bonus of a couple sketches of him racing in the corners of the matte. House-warming gift.

You’re correct about the details. I have lots of opinions after arguing and looking over factoids for years now. I think Sec is overrated (but not too much - he’s still tops), but the most overrated racer ever is Ruffian, and possibly Kincsem too. ;-)

In the 1960s when I grew up these two prints were likely the most common found in homes outside of the Last Supper by DaVinci
