EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from the 19th century, we witness a moment of triumph and celebration at the Alexandra Palace Horse Show. The image captures the essence of horse shows, where elegance and skill converge in a display of equine excellence. The focal point is an exquisite black and white sketch depicting the act of "Putting the Ribbons on a Prize Winner". A group of elegantly dressed individuals surrounds a magnificent horse, adorned with ribbons that symbolize its victory. The artist's attention to detail brings every aspect to life - from the intricate patterns on their attire to the horses' majestic presence. London's Alexandra Palace provides a grand backdrop for this scene, adding an air of sophistication to the event. As spectators watch intently, they are transported into a world where passion for horses meets competitive spirit. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation. It originally appeared in The Graphic newspaper on July 5th, 1879 - capturing not only this specific moment but also preserving it for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can't help but be captivated by its timeless beauty. It reminds us that even in our modern era, horse shows continue to enchant audiences worldwide with their grace and splendor.
