Vintage print, 13.25 x 11, of a portrait of Churchill seated in a chair, his trademark cigar in one hand, originally done by Arthur Pan in 1943, signed in the lower border in black ink, “Winston S. Churchill 1951.” Framed to an overall size of 14.75 x 13. In very good condition, with scattered foxing and dampstaining to borders, some lightly affecting signature, and some slight rippling. There is also some wear and chipping to frame. Pan’s painting was a rallying cry to the British people during the dark days of the war, and this image carries Churchill's famous quote and a reproduction of his signature at the bottom. The original oil painting by Arthur Pan hangs at the American Embassy. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
