EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the vibrant racing scene at the Champ de Mars Race track in Port Louis, Mauritius, circa 1956. With its landscape format, it beautifully showcases the sport of horse racing against a backdrop of the stunning Indian Ocean islands. The image, skillfully captured by renowned photographer Reg Birkett, exudes timeless elegance and evokes a sense of nostalgia. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an exhilarating moment as horses thunder down the track with incredible speed and grace. The absence of people in this frame allows us to focus solely on these magnificent creatures as they compete for victory. Their powerful strides are accentuated by the contrasting black and white tones that emphasize their athleticism and determination. As we gaze upon this archival piece from sports history, we can almost hear the cheers from enthusiastic spectators echoing through time. It serves as a reminder of how sports venues like this have long been arenas where dreams are chased and success is celebrated. Reg Burkett's masterful composition not only captures a thrilling sporting event but also transports us to an era when horse racing was at its peak on this picturesque island. This print is truly a testament to both his artistic vision and his ability to preserve moments that continue to inspire generations today.
