EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the thrilling House of Commons Steeplechase at Rugby on 29 March. The image depicts the rush at the first fence, with Mr A E Pease, MP, leading the pack astride his magnificent horse Norah Creina. The intensity and excitement of this moment are beautifully conveyed by artist William Barnes Wollen. The House of Commons Steeplechase was a prestigious event that brought together members of parliament in a display of skill and daring. As Mr Pease fearlessly takes charge at the front, his determination is palpable. His steed, Norah Creina, matches his energy stride for stride as they navigate their way through Warwickshire's challenging terrain. Wollen's masterful technique brings every detail to life - from the powerful muscles rippling beneath each horse's sleek coat to the focused expressions on both rider and mount. This print not only showcases an exhilarating sporting event but also serves as a testament to the strength and resilience displayed by these individuals who hold positions of power within society. As we gaze upon this historic scene frozen in time, we can't help but be drawn into its drama and spectacle. It reminds us that even those entrusted with governing our nation have moments when they seek respite from their responsibilities through thrilling pursuits such as horseracing.
