Polo Watercolour, 'Sport in the Shiney'.
A stunning framed polo watercolour after Snaffles 'Sport in the Shiney'. This has been done by a very proficient and accomplished artist who has not signed the piece.

The main image 'The Game of Sahibs and Rajahs' shows a game of polo in full swing, surrounded by seven vignettes.
