EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Vale of Aylesbury Steeple Chase, Plate 4" takes us back to the thrilling world of horse racing in the 19th century. Created by Charles Hunt and George Hunt, this lithograph captures a vibrant scene from a long-forgotten race that took place around 1836. The artwork was published by Ariel Press in London and printed in Germany by KG Lohse. The image showcases an idyllic countryside setting in Buckinghamshire, England. In the foreground, we see a group of jockeys fiercely competing on their magnificent horses as they approach the finishing line. The intensity is palpable as one rider falls from his steed while others navigate through the challenging farmland terrain. The crowd of spectators eagerly watches from afar, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. Among them stands a distinguished gentleman who seems engrossed in every moment of this exhilarating sport. The color palette used adds depth and vibrancy to the scene, bringing it to life even after all these years. This remarkable piece pays homage to Francis Calcroft Turner's original work while showcasing Charles Hunt's and George Hunt's artistic talent. As we gaze upon this historic print, we are transported back to a time when horse racing was not just a sport but also an integral part of British culture. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and the enduring passion for equestrian pursuits that still captivate us today.
