EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by renowned equestrian and sporting artist, Gilbert Holiday, transports us back in time to the annual Grand National Steeplechase at Aintree in 1926. The excitement and tension of the race are palpable as the horses and riders approach the next daunting obstacle. The crowd, a sea of hats and coats, leans in, hearts pounding in anticipation. The jumper in the foreground soars through the air, a perfect moment of grace and power, while behind him, chaos ensues. A horse and rider have fallen, the fallout of the treacherous terrain and the unpredictability of the race. The historical significance of the Grand National, with its thrills and spills, is beautifully encapsulated in this dramatic scene. Holiday's masterful use of line, shade, and color brings the energy and emotion of the day to life, making this a must-have for any equestrian or racing enthusiast's collection.
