EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1872, Gustave Dore transports us back to the bustling streets of Victorian London. The scene captures the electrifying moment of victory in a horse race, as the crowd erupts with excitement and anticipation. Amidst a sea of spectators, one jockey stands tall atop his triumphant steed, basking in the glory of his achievement. The engraving beautifully depicts the late 19th-century English population gathered together to witness this thrilling event. Every face tells a story - some filled with awe and admiration for the winner, others reflecting disappointment or hope for future races. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; you can almost hear the thundering hooves and feel the energy pulsating through the air. Dore's work was part of his larger project "London: A Pilgrimage" which aimed to capture various aspects of life in England's capital city during that era. This particular image encapsulates both its historical significance and artistic brilliance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand what it must have been like on that fateful day in 1872. It serves as a testament not only to Dore's talent but also to our enduring fascination with moments of triumph and collective celebration throughout history.
