EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving, titled "A Standing-dish at Boodles" captures a moment of aristocratic indulgence and horse racing glory in the Georgian era. Created by James Gillray and published by Hannah Humphrey in 1800, this satirical caricature offers a humorous glimpse into the world of Sir Frank Standish, 3rd Baronet. Sir Frank Standish, an esteemed racehorse owner, is depicted standing proudly near a window with his three prized horses that won the Derby Stakes. Spread Eagle triumphed in 1795, followed by Didelot in 1796 and Archduke in 1799. The yellow filly showcased here symbolizes one of these victorious steeds. The scene showcases elements of high society as Sir Frank stands confidently wearing his top hat while surrounded by other members of the aristocracy. The cartoon-like style adds to the satire present throughout the image. This print provides insight into both horseracing culture and social dynamics during this period. It serves as a reminder of how influential individuals like Sir Frank Standish could revel in their success within exclusive clubs such as Boodles. Courtesy of the Warden and Scholars of New College, Oxford, this historical artwork has been preserved for generations to appreciate its artistic value and historical significance. As we admire this engraving from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, it allows us to delve into an intriguing chapter from England's past where sport met privilege amidst societal commentary.
