EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense athleticism and agility in the world of vaulting. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image showcases a faulty stride vault, illustrating a scene from Thomas McDowell's book "Vaulting" published in Oxford in 1932. In this historical snapshot, we witness the harmonious interaction between humans and animals as they engage in gymnastics on a farm. The focus is on a horse executing the faulty stride vault with remarkable precision. Surrounding it are other horses including racehorses, ponies, shire horses, and stallions - all showcasing their strength and grace. The outdoor setting adds to the charm of this photograph as it highlights the connection between nature and physical exercise. The individuals involved wear shorts or short trousers along with kit tops suitable for such activities. While nudity is subtly hinted at through mentions of nakedness or semi-nude figures, it serves to emphasize the rawness and authenticity of these athletes' performances rather than being gratuitous or explicit. Overall, this image not only celebrates the artistry behind vaulting but also offers us glimpses into our rich history where humans have always sought to push their physical limits while cherishing their bond with animals.
