EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the excitement and intensity of a "V C" race at the Royal Artillery Sports in Aldershot. The image, created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, showcases a thrilling moment frozen in time. The scene is filled with action as military personnel on horseback compete fiercely for victory. The horses gallop with incredible speed, their powerful muscles straining against the wind. Each rider displays remarkable skill and determination, urging their steeds forward to reach the finish line. The atmosphere is electric, with spectators lining the track to cheer on their favorites. Their faces are filled with anticipation and awe as they witness this exhilarating display of equestrian prowess. This print not only captures a sporting event but also serves as a testament to courage and bravery within the military community. The mention of "V C" alludes to the Victoria Cross, one of Britain's highest honors awarded for acts of valor during wartime. As we gaze upon this historical artwork today, we are transported back to that day in 1885 when these brave soldiers showcased their exceptional horsemanship skills at Aldershot. It reminds us of our rich history and pays tribute to those who have served our country with great honor and distinction.
