The large-framed artwork is a striking reproduction of W. Smithson Broadhead’s 1925 portrait of famed cricketer Sir Jack Hobbs . Originally commissioned for The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News , this version showcases an inverted cream‑toned take on his Surrey County Cricket Club blazer, complete with the club’s Saint George and the Dragon emblem. Elegant, nostalgic, and richly detailed, it brings a refined athletic heritage to any wall.
