EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Horse Dealers at the Barbican, 1921" takes us back to a bustling market scene in early 20th century England. The image showcases a courtyard filled with horses, grooms, customers, and horse dealers engaged in inspecting and parading their prized animals. The composition beautifully captures the energy of this lively fair as potential buyers carefully examine each horse on display. The stable hands can be seen meticulously grooming the horses to present them at their best for sale. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as both buyers and sellers negotiate prices and discuss the qualities of these magnificent creatures. Robert Polhill Bevan's skilled illustration transports us to a bygone era when horse trading was an essential part of daily life. Through his monochromatic style, he masterfully conveys the textures of the horses' coats and harnesses while capturing every detail of their powerful yet graceful forms. This print from Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection offers viewers a glimpse into history while celebrating the artistry involved in depicting such scenes. It serves as a reminder of how our relationship with animals has evolved over time but also highlights our enduring fascination with these majestic creatures.
