    1890 Currier & Ives Print - "A Race For Blood"

    Picked this up today. Thought the imagery was interesting. This is a high quality reproduction by Donald Art Co. Printed from an original painting by Luis Maurer.

    Titled "A Race for Blood" this lithograph depicts a Horse harness race with a sulky.

    SULKY?
    A light two-wheeled horse-drawn vehicle for one person, used chiefly in harness racing.

    LUIS MAURER
    "Louis Maurer (February 21, 1832 – July 19, 1932) was a German-born American lithographer."

    "He was the last surviving artist known to have been employed by Currier and Ives."

    DAC
    Donald Bonnist was the owner and founder of the Donald Art Company. The Donald Art Co. Is known for very good reproductions.

    "It's been said that the Donald Art Company was the most successful of all the art publishing companies in the 1900's. They sold millions of prints to retail and wholesale outlets, in the USA as well as internationally. Their litho prints are easy to recognize because they were signed with the full company name (Donald Art Co.) or an abbreviation: D.A.C., NY."
