The engraving beautifully portrays the energy and excitement of the race, with jockeys skillfully guiding their feathered steeds towards victory. The artist, Stefano Bianchetti, brings to life every detail of this remarkable scene - from the powerful stride of each ostrich to the intense expressions on both bird and rider alike. As one gazes upon this print, it is impossible not to be transported back in time to witness this thrilling event firsthand. The combination of human and animal athleticism creates a sense of awe and admiration for those who participated in such an audacious endeavor.
