EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vibrant and lively print titled "The Sleigh Race" we are transported back to the winter of 1859 in North America. The scene captures a thrilling competition between horse-drawn sleighs, as both male and female participants eagerly compete for victory. The horses, adorned with colorful harnesses, gallop through the snowy landscape with great speed and determination. This artwork by Currier & Ives beautifully depicts the spirit of sport and camaraderie that was prevalent during this era in American history. The excitement is palpable as spectators cheer on their favorite teams from the sidelines, creating an electric atmosphere. The snow-covered fields serve as a picturesque backdrop for this exhilarating race, adding to the sense of adventure and thrill. As these majestic animals showcase their strength and agility, they become symbols of both power and grace. "The Sleigh Race" not only showcases the love for equestrian sports but also highlights the importance of horses in American culture at that time. These magnificent creatures were not just modes of transportation but also beloved companions who played a vital role in daily life on farms across America. Through this image captured by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of our rich heritage and how art can transport us to different times and places.
