Breaking Up a Rush: A Thrilling Moment in Inter-Regimental Polo, as Depicted by Equestrian Artist Gilbert Holiday (1927) This photograph print, brought to us by the renowned equestrian artist Gilbert Holiday, transports us back to the glamour and thrill of the polo field during the 1920s. The image captures an electrifying moment during an Inter-Regimental Polo match, where the ball, having been just cleared from the danger zone with a sturdy back-hander, waits for the next play. The tension in the air is palpable as a player in blue and white readies himself to strike the ball and menace the goal once more. The ponies, their coats glistening with sweat and their eyes focused intently on the game, stand poised and ready for action. Their riders, dressed in their finest polo attire, are a testament to the elegance and style of the era. The scene is set against the backdrop of a lush, green polo field, with the sun casting long shadows across the grass. Gilbert Holiday, a master of his craft, expertly captures the raw energy and excitement of the game, as well as the skill and precision of the players and their ponies. This photograph print is a stunning reminder of the rich history and tradition of polo, a sport that continues to captivate audiences and participants alike.
