The Horse Show at the Agricultural Hall, Islington, 1876: A Glimpse into the Thirteenth Annual Equine Event This photograph print, hailing from the 19th century, showcases a pivotal moment at the thirteenth annual horse show held at the Agricultural Hall in Islington, London. The image, filled with anticipation and excitement, features an impressive lineup of horses and ponies, each vying for recognition in their respective categories. Prominently displayed, we find Mr. J. Barker's "Liverpool," the first-prize winner in the heavy-weight hunter division. Adjacent to it, Mr. Tattersall Musgrave's "Talisman" proudly holds the title of the first-prize light-weight hunter. Two ponies graced the show with the presence of the Prince of Wales. The first, "Cabullee," is a brown, 14-hands-high beauty with an exceptionally long mane and tail. Originating from Cabul (now Kabul, Afghanistan), it is believed that Cabullee is a Yarkand pony. Another notable entry was Mr. Arnold Morley's five-year-old pure Arab, showcasing the elegant and timeless beauty of the Arabian horse. With over 350 horses entered in the competition, the Agricultural Hall was buzzing with activity. The Horse Show in the Illustrated London News provides a fascinating glimpse into this grand event, which took place in 1876. This photograph print, a treasure from the past, captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a captivating window into the world of equine competitions during the Victorian era.
