EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Eclipse, a dark chestnut racehorse, being held by a groom with a jockey nearby. The painting, created by George Stubbs in 1770, showcases the beauty and power of this legendary British racehorse. Eclipse was not just any ordinary horse; he was hailed as the greatest racehorse of his time. Descended from prestigious bloodlines such as the Darley Arab and Godolphin Barb, Eclipse possessed an unbeatable record on the racetrack and became renowned for his remarkable stud career. In this artwork, we see Eclipse standing proudly outside the Rubbing Down House at Newmarket. The late eighteenth-century setting adds to its charm and evokes a sense of nostalgia for that era. The neoclassical style employed by Stubbs further enhances the grandeur of both man and beast. The presence of Jack Oakley, possibly the jockey depicted in this piece, adds an element of action to the composition. It is evident that preparations are underway for an upcoming race or training session. As we admire this stunning oil painting on canvas, we cannot help but be captivated by Eclipse's strong posture and noble demeanor. This artwork serves as a testament to both his athletic prowess and enduring legacy within British horseracing history. Displayed in private collection today, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only Stubbs' artistic talent but also celebrates one of Britain's most iconic sporting figures - Eclipse - forever immortalized through artistry.
