This very rare, sold-out Sam Toft print comes from the same special collection as other secondary-market works we are offering. The current owner is reluctantly selling these pieces and hopes to rehome them somewhere they will be appreciated and loved. It is a pleasure to bring them to The Braithwaite Gallery in York, the northern home of all things Tofty for more than two decades and one of Sam’s biggest fans.
