Originally part of the RA Collection-The Lord Rhodes
The original painting Going to the Match by L.S. Lowry was bought by the Professional Footballers Association almost 9 years ago for approx. £2,000,000
Painted in 1928, it is now on display in The Lowry Centre and has been valued a few years ago at £6-10million

One of several football subjects painted by Lowry, who was always keenly interested in sport: football and cricket in particular.
Many of these pictures have either direct or imaginary links with Burnden Park, Bolton, home of Bolton Wanderers football club,
a ground only a few miles from Pendlebury and often visited by Lowry, as a young man.

However, as with so many of his Industrial Landscapes,
his football pictures are usually a "composite" of the actual and the imaginary,
incorporating a variety of elements from the stock mythos of Lowry's imagery.
Factories, buildings and streets, woven into a "vision". As Lowry said to the writer,
"If I had shown things as they are-it would not have looked like a vision. So I had to make up symbols.
With my figures also, of course."
The picture therefore is not a picture of a particular football match but a vision of all football matches.
