Description
An official print of Winston Churchill’s definitive wartime formal portrait, posed at his Downing Street desk, taken by Walter Stoneman for J. Russell Sons on April 1, 1942.
The image, which often was printed at a pocket-size, here measures a larger 5 x 8 inches. It is signed in ink on the mount: “Winston S. Churchill”
The mount is stamped on the verso: “J. Russell Sons.”
There is faint silvering to the edges of the image and light spotting on Churchill’s forehead. The mount has a number of faint creases that do not reach the image itself. The ink signature remains strong.
Museum matted and gorgeously framed (18 x 20 12 inches overall).
