EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Ralph Cleaver, titled "Sketches at the House of Commons and Brigade of Guards Point-to-Point Races, Bourton Estate, Buckingham, 26 March" offers a fascinating glimpse into a momentous day in British history. The illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on April 2nd, 1898. The scene depicts the start of an exhilarating point-to-point race at the prestigious Bourton Estate. Elegantly dressed spectators gather around a beautifully stamped fence as they anxiously await the thrilling competition to commence. Among them are notable figures such as Mr. Pease and Mr. J. W. Phillips, both members of parliament who have taken part in this exciting event. The artist skillfully captures the intensity and excitement that fills the air as racehorses thunder past with incredible speed and agility. Each rider displays remarkable courage and determination as they navigate through challenging obstacles along the course. In this snapshot from history, Cleaver also highlights some humorous moments amidst all the action - from riders suffering from chillblains to others fearing unexpected mishaps during their ride. Through his intricate engravings, Cleaver transports us back to a time when horseracing was not only about competition but also about elegance and camaraderie among esteemed individuals like Oliver Macbeth and Mikey Titus Andron. This print serves as a valuable reminder of how sport has always played an integral role in society's fabric while offering us a unique window into an era long gone
