They have acquired one of the most comprehensive groups of English sporting scenes of the 18th and 19th centuries to be held in a private collection. Each of the sixty seven paintings has been unquestionably authenticated; each is by a top ranking artist of the period; and each was selected for its meticulous quality. When the word "purity" is used to describe a collection, the experts use these aspects as measures. It is rare to find the degree of purity represented in the Poole Collection, even in some notable museum collections. The Pooles are considered to be amongst the foremost owners in the world of a collection built around this particular theme. Ref GGG4.
