"The Starting Gate" Saratoga Springs Race Course Track Placemat

A detailed pen-and-ink illustration captures the iconic starting gate structure at Saratoga Springs Race Course, with tall wooden poles and intricate cross-bracing rising against a stippled sky dotted with distant trees. Below the gate, a crowded grandstand and gathering of spectators, horses, and vintage vehicles fill the foreground with fine linear marks that create texture and energy throughout the composition. Printed on 100% cotton with natural cotton on the back and made to order, machine washable. Everyday dinners set under an independent artist's work, not vinyl from the seasonal aisle.
