1953 L.S. Lowry produces Going to the Match the most famous football painting of all time.
2023 The ground Lowry painted, Burnden Park, is no more, the factories surrounding it gone, and with them the jobs his stick like figures had. This historic ground replaced by an out-of-town stadium named after (checks notes) a recyclable building product manufacturer .
David Squires 70th anniversary recreation of Lowry's original includes everything we have come to 'love' about the modern matchgoing experience. Featuring the 21st century least-favourite way of getting there, the 'rail replacement bus service' (and for afters, a final whistle afterthe last train home has left), the ubiquitous half and half scarf and of course... VAR.
Available as a pair with David's Ultimate Fantasy Stadium tea towel here for just £29 (usual price £32) with free A5 art card of each cartoon hand signed by David Squires (whilst stocks last).
