"The Jockey Club: A Legacy of Horse Racing and Elegance" Step back in time to the early 20th century, where the Race Track at Oriental Park in Havana, Cuba, stood as a symbol of excitement and glamour. In this captivating image from c1915, we witness the thrill of horse racing unfold before our eyes. As we delve deeper into history, we encounter two influential figures who shaped the world of horse racing forever. Admiral Henry John Rous (1795-1877) and George Payne (1803-78) were instrumental in establishing the Jockey Club's prestigious reputation. Their dedication and passion for this noble sport laid a solid foundation that still stands strong today. The lithographic sketches at Goodwood transport us to an era filled with humor and camaraderie on both the course and paddock. These lively scenes capture not only the intensity of competition but also the joy shared by spectators and participants alike. Mr Frederick Barne's colorful lithograph showcases his artistic talent while paying homage to one of horse racing's most respected stewards. This vibrant piece serves as a testament to Mr Barne's admiration for Admiral Rous' invaluable contributions. Major E H Egerton's striking color lithograph captures another facet of horse racing culture – this time taking us across continents to New Orleans' own Jockey Club. The black-and-white photograph further immerses us in its rich history, allowing us to witness firsthand how this club became a hub for enthusiasts seeking thrilling races. Moving forward through time, we find ourselves standing outside Agua Caliente Jockey Club's majestic Club House during 1939. The atmosphere is electric as eager racegoers gather together to watch their favorite horses gallop towards victory on yet another exhilarating day at the track. Meanwhile, Habana presents an enchanting scene from c1915 – showcasing Carreras de Ceballors or horse races held at the Race Track in Marianao.
