EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "May-Day Procession of Horses at Newcastle-on-Tyne" takes us back to the vibrant streets of 19th century England. The image, captured by an anonymous English School artist, showcases a lively scene filled with excitement and elegance. The May-Day procession is in full swing as beautifully adorned horses draw attention from all directions. A lady named Burdett Coutts stands out amongst the crowd, her presence exuding grace and sophistication. Ponies parade alongside larger horses, creating a delightful contrast in size and stature. Boys eagerly watch the procession unfold, their eyes fixed on the prize-winning horse belonging to Lady Burdett Coutts' husband. This magnificent animal represents not only championship glory but also the pride of its owner. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, we notice other significant elements such as a statue paying homage to Stephenson - a testament to Newcastle's rich industrial heritage. The North Eastern Railway Company plays its part in transporting these majestic creatures for display during this festive occasion. This engraving captures not just a moment in time but also highlights our deep connection with animals - be it wildlife or farm animals like these horses that have become an integral part of our lives throughout history. Fine Art Finder has once again brought us closer to the beauty and stories hidden within art through Bridgeman Images' remarkable collection.
