EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Three Worthies of the Turf at Newmarket, c. 1804: John Hilton, Judge of the canvas" takes us back to a bygone era of horse racing glory. The image showcases three distinguished figures who have left an indelible mark on the sport. At the center stands John Hilton, portrayed with an air of authority befitting his role as Judge of the canvas. His stern expression and commanding presence exude confidence and expertise in determining race outcomes. Flanked on either side are two jockeys, their lean frames attesting to their years spent in pursuit of victory on horseback. The composition captures a moment frozen in time - perhaps before or after a thrilling race - as these three individuals come together for this portrait. Their camaraderie is palpable; they share a bond forged through countless races won and lost. The artist Benjamin Marshall skillfully brings out each subject's unique character through meticulous attention to detail. From Hilton's dignified countenance to the jockeys' weathered faces etched with determination, every line tells a story. Displayed against a plain backdrop, devoid of distractions, this print draws our focus solely onto these equestrian icons. It serves as both homage to their contributions and an invitation for viewers to delve into the rich history that lies behind them. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection, we are transported back in time - reminded once
