RACKHAM, Arthur (1867-1939). Archery, original watercolor and pen and ink drawing, signed ("Arthur Rackham") lower right, c.1925.
A romantic idyll, probably from Rackham's "Rose Garden" series for Cashmere Bouquet Soap in which a pair of tender-skinned lovers enjoy the sport of summer. Most of the rose trellis was added later to this drawing—possibly Rackham's client requested "more roses" as the appeal of the soap depends on the sweet scent of the flowers.
274 x 240mm, watercolor and pen and ink on paper (mounted to card, upper left corner and trellis on collage and browned, overall toning). Matted.
