Steeplechasing: A Thrilling Tradition of Horse and Rider, as depicted in these historic works of art. Witness the intense moment as Irish-trained Arkle, ridden by Pat Taaffe, takes the last fence ahead of English champion Mill House in a nail-biting race (Steeplechasing: Three Riders Taking a Brook). The beauty and danger of steeplechasing is captured in the engravings of Charles Hunt, including "Second Mile" and "Forth Mile" from his series "Steeplechasing. " Jockeys like D. Moore on Royal Danieli add to the excitement, as portrayed in this 1939 image. In the words of Adam Lindsay Gordon, "The steeps must be taken in hand, or else those fences will take you. " (Steeplechasing: The Brook, oil on canvas). Horse-riding at its most exhilarating.
