In this print titled "The Waterloo Cup at Altcar" we are transported back to a thrilling moment in sporting history. The image captures the intensity of a coursing race between two magnificent greyhounds, Happy Gallop and Dark Dapple, on 17th February 1921. As the dogs dash across the vast open field, their sleek bodies blur with incredible speed. The determination in their eyes is palpable as they chase after their elusive prey - a hare darting ahead of them. It's a true test of agility, strength, and instinct. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to the scene, emphasizing the timeless nature of this exhilarating sport. Every detail is meticulously captured by Alfieri's skilled lens; from the dogs' muscular frames to the spectators eagerly watching from afar. This photograph not only showcases an exciting moment in dog racing but also highlights our enduring fascination with hunting sports throughout history.
