Baron Learie Constantine Pop Art
Stylish cricket pop art print by Art & Hue, available in three sizes & 21 colour options, including sun-drenched tones of leaf green, coral, and yellow (“Multi” option).

Guiding the West Indies to a three-wicket victory against England at Lord’s in 1928, Learie Constantine was offered a contract by Lancashire club Nelson. Nelson went on to win eight out of the 10 seasons he was there and Constantine was bestowed with the freedom of the Borough.

Australian cricketer Donald Bradman described Constantine as the greatest fielder he had seen and Wisden wrote that Constantine “revolutionised all the recognised features of cricket and, surpassing Bradman in his amazing stroke play”.

West Indian cricketer Learie Constantine was not only influential in British cricket but also in British society at large.

When London’s Imperial Hotel refused to honour Constantine’s room reservation, he successfully took legal action for breach of contract in a widely-reported milestone leading to anti-discrimination legislation.

The Race Relations Act of 1965 established the Race Relations Board, on which Constantine sat as one of three members, to investigate cases of racial discrimination.

Constantine qualified as a barrister in 1954 and was Trinidad & Tobago’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom from 1961 to 1964.

Awarded a life peerage in 1969, Baron Constantine was the first Black Parliamentarian sitting in the House of Lords.

Also available as part of group of 8 and 6.
