Hitching Post 1935 - 1942

Robert W.R. Taylor's "Hitching Post" is a watercolor on paper depicting a jockey figure in a stylized pose. The artwork captures the jockey in mid-action, holding a ring in his right hand, and has a distinct Art Deco aesthetic. The jockey is portrayed in a traditional racing outfit and the figure stands on an ornately carved base. This artwork, completed between 1935 and 1942, demonstrates Taylor's artistic skill and the influence of the prevailing design style of the era.
