EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Hermit, foaled 1864" a magnificent racehorse from the 19th century. The image, captured by an English School artist, is part of a private collection and was featured in Thomas Henry Taunton's book "Portraits of Celebrated Racehorses". In this remarkable photograph, Hermit exudes strength and grace as he gallops across the field. His powerful muscles ripple beneath his sleek coat, while his mane flows freely in the wind. With every stride, he demonstrates his exceptional athleticism and determination. The monochrome aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia to this historic moment frozen in time. It transports us back to an era when horse racing was not only a sport but also a symbol of prestige and excitement. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the rich history that surrounds these majestic creatures. Horses like Hermit were revered for their speed and agility, capturing the hearts of spectators worldwide. This print serves as both a tribute to Hermit's legacy as well as a testament to the artistry involved in capturing such moments on film. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of horses but also their significance within our cultural heritage.
