6" square tile with an underglaze hand painted scene of horses and jockeys. The tile is unmarked other than some letters and numbers to the reverse so presumably a decorated blank. The style looks a bit Poole-ish. Any thoughts?

I think if it was Poole it would be on a Carter blank. With the numbers, it
maybe one of a set? Maybe for a tiled coffee table or something like that.

That avatar is from the Midwich Cuckoos. A brilliant John Wyndham book that has produced so-so films.
The artwork on that tile certainly looks somewhat old fashioned and rather inaccurate in pose. I wonder if it by am amatuer.

John Wyndham wrote some excellent books ,one that always sticks in my mind was The Kraken Wakes, a story that fits in well with the global warming and apocalyptic warnings of today.

Honestly guy look at it it's hideous. If Jesus Christ had painted it I would still tell him it's unpleasant. It's really not nice to look at.

The 1960 film from which that came was a horror film adaptation of the John Wyndham book. Yes indeed it is a hideous image.But then it is meant to be. It was a horror film when they really made them!
