EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by renowned British artist Gilbert Holiday transports us back in time to the elegant and prestigious world of Royal Ascot during the 1930s. The scene unfolds in the unsaddling enclosure, a tranquil and intimate space where the day's racing excitement begins to wind down. The image is filled with an air of refinement and leisure, as jockeys, having just dismounted from their weary steeds, are attended to by grooms. Horses, still glistening with sweat and mud from the racecourse, are led away to be groomed and cooled down. The jockeys, dressed in their iconic silks and breeches, exchange stories and jokes with one another, their faces reflecting a mix of relief, pride, and anticipation for the next race. In the background, the grandstands of Royal Ascot can be seen, filled with the fashionably dressed crowd, who have come to witness the thrilling horse races. The intricate details of the illustration, from the ornate architecture of the unsaddling enclosure to the delicate folds of the jockeys' silks, bring the scene to life and transport us back in time. This beautiful work of art by Gilbert Holiday is a testament to the rich history and tradition of horseracing at Royal Ascot, a time-honored event that continues to captivate audiences around the world.
