EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to the thrilling world of horse racing in the 1980s. The image captures the legendary racehorse Desert Orchid alongside his skilled jockey Richard Dunwoody, moments after their triumphant victory at the King George VI Steeple Chase held at Kempton Park in 1989. The intensity and determination on both Desert Orchid's face and Dunwoody's expression tell a story of sheer focus and unwavering dedication. It is as if time stands still for this dynamic duo, frozen in a moment that encapsulates their undeniable bond and shared passion for the sport. Desert Orchid, known affectionately as "Dessie" was an icon of British horse racing during this era. With his striking grey coat glistening under the sunlit racetrack, he exudes power and grace. This photograph serves as a testament to his extraordinary talent and indomitable spirit. Clive Limpkin's masterful composition not only captures the essence of horseracing but also transports us back to a bygone era when sportsmanship reigned supreme. As spectators, we can almost feel our hearts pounding with anticipation as we witness this historic moment unfold before our eyes. This print is not just a piece of art; it is a window into history – an homage to two remarkable beings who left an indelible mark on horse racing forever.
