The Great Derby Race of Eighteen Hundred and Fifty-One: A Humorous Take on International Unity at the Crystal Palace This print depicts an extraordinary scene from the year 1851, when the excitement of the horse racing world collided with the international flair of the Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations. The image features Mr. Punch, a popular British puppet character, leading the way in the Derby Race, with Joseph Paxton, the Superintendent of the Crystal Palace, hot on his heels. But this was no ordinary race. Jockeys from various nations rode not only horses but also an impressive array of animals, including a bull, an elephant, a pig, and a camel. The racial and ethnic diversity of the riders and their mounts adds a unique and intriguing dimension to this historical event. The backdrop of the Crystal Palace, the iconic structure that housed the Great Exhibition, further emphasizes the international theme. The Exhibition, which opened in May 1851, showcased the works of industry from all corners of the globe, fostering a spirit of unity and collaboration among nations. This delightful cartoon not only captures the excitement of the Derby Race but also highlights the international camaraderie that defined the era. With its charming blend of humor and historical significance, this print remains an enduring reminder of a time when the world came together to celebrate human ingenuity and diversity.
