Signed in the plate lower right “D.W. Barrow”
Titled in the margin lower centre
Presented in a glazed frame with cream mount and red inner slip
A nostalgic architectural and sporting scene depicting Central Park, the former home of Wigan Football Club, viewed from the riverside. The composition captures a bustling matchday atmosphere, with supporters gathering beneath floodlights outside the brick-built stadium buildings. Umbrellas and evening light evoke a characteristically Northern English setting, while the river in the foreground provides depth and movement.
Barrow’s work is known for its evocative portrayals of British sporting venues and industrial townscapes, rendered in a softly impressionistic palette that enhances the mood and sense of place.
Central Park served as the home of Wigan Warriors (formerly Wigan Football Club in rugby league context) from 1902 until its closure in 1999, making images of the ground particularly sought-after by collectors of rugby league memorabilia.
