EDITORS COMMENTS
The Doncaster race meeting opens with a bang as 'Impertinent' steals the show and wins the thrilling first race, known as the Fitzwilliam Stakes. This photo print, captured on 13th September 1922 by Central News, takes us back to the roaring twenties when horse racing was at its peak. The monochrome image transports us to a time of glamour and excitement, where spectators eagerly gather at the racecourse to witness this exhilarating event. The crowd is buzzing with anticipation as they cheer on their favorite horses, creating an electric atmosphere that can almost be felt through the photograph. The timeless nature of this twentieth-century snapshot allows us to appreciate not only the thrill of horse racing but also provides a glimpse into European society during that era. The fashion choices of both men and women in attendance reflect the trends of the 1920s, adding an extra layer of historical significance to this remarkable piece. As we delve into Europeana photography's vast collection, it becomes evident that images like these hold immense cultural value. They serve as windows into our past while reminding us of how traditions such as horse racing have endured throughout generations. This particular print from TopFoto captures a moment frozen in time – one filled with suspense, joyous celebrations, and shared experiences among racegoers. It encapsulates both the spirit of competition and camaraderie that make events like these so cherished even today.
