EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A Race-Meeting at Aden" takes us back to the vibrant world of 19th-century Yemen. Created by John Charles Dollman and now part of a private collection, this print offers a glimpse into an exhilarating event that unfolded in Aden. The scene is filled with excitement as spectators gather to witness the Naval Drag, Great Bedouin Steeplechase, and camel racing. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as camels and donkeys line up for the race. Each animal exudes strength and determination, ready to showcase their speed on the dusty track. Jacks Joy, a magnificent Bactrian camel known for its agility and grace, stands out among the crowd. Its humps proudly raised high against the backdrop of Aden's scenic landscape. This remarkable creature epitomizes both wild beauty and untamed spirit. As we delve deeper into this image, we are reminded of the diverse wildlife that thrives in this region. From camels to various other animals present at this race-meeting, nature's wonders are on full display. Dollman masterfully captures not only a thrilling moment but also transports us to another time when such events were eagerly anticipated social gatherings. Through his artistry, he immortalizes an important aspect of Yemeni culture while celebrating these majestic creatures' role in their society. This enchanting print from Bridgeman Images invites us to appreciate both artistic brilliance and cultural heritage intertwined within one frame—a testament
