BERYL COOK
Footballers on the Beach, 1966
Oil on board
14 x 25 inches (framed)
Included in BERYL COOL TAKES NEW YORK open through January 7th @ahugfromtheartworld
This painting holds significant historical importance.
Painted only four years after Beryl Cook’s first work, the artist captures the enthusiasm of footballers on the beach, reliving and possibly imitating England’s first and only World Cup win of the same year 1966.
I am thrilled this painting is included in the BERYL COOK TAKES NEW YORK exhibition. Below is a larger exhibition history of the work, Shown in multiple museums in the United Kingdom.
The FA (Football Association) just sold L.S. Lowry’s Going to the Match for record £7,846,500 to raise money for the players foundation.
Maybe their is now a gap in their collection that’s needs to be filled or private collector that wants a piece of history for a mere £30,000 (peanuts by comparison)
