Six Olympic Watercolor Prints, 1976 and “Danby: Images of Sport” book by Kenneth Danby (Vintage Art Book and Watercolor Prints). Each unframed, housed with the book in a portfolio box.

Each of the six Olympic Athlete watercolors was created with an overall design element considered so that when viewed together the six images could possess a degree of unity and balance. While it is certainly not necessary to keep the six prints together as a group, there are two recommended arrangements which best allow this balance to be achieved. These are as follows:

Horizontal composition:

(Left to right) Top - The Gymnast, The High Jumper, The Diver.

Bottom - The Sprinter, The Sculler, The Cyclist.

Vertical composition:

(Left to right) Top - The Gymnast, The Diver.

Middle - The Sculler, The High Jumper

Bottom - The Sprinter, The Cyclist.

Content of Portfolio:

A handsome book, bound in simulated leather and stamped in gold leaf.

Size magnificent 14 X 11.75 inches, full-color prints, never before available. Each depicts a different Olympic sport.
