EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic presence of Polymelus, a legendary racehorse from the early 20th century. Taken in 1911, this side view portrait showcases the sheer power and grace possessed by this magnificent stallion. Polymelus was renowned for his exceptional racing abilities and left an indelible mark on British horse racing history. The photograph is part of the esteemed book "British Sports and Sportsmen" published in London during that era. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of both Polymelus and British sporting culture. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back to a bygone era when thoroughbred horses were celebrated icons. Notable figures associated with Polymelus are also mentioned within the caption. John Porter, an influential figure in horse racing at that time, trained this remarkable steed who achieved notable victories such as winning the Criterion Stakes and Richmond Stakes races. Additionally, Robert Crewe Milnes, known as the 1st Marquess of Crewe, played a significant role in promoting horse racing events. This particular print is curated by The Print Collector29 under their collection titled "Polymelus". While it's important not to mention commercial use or any affiliation with companies related to Heritage Images (the source), we can appreciate how this stunning photograph encapsulates not only the beauty of animals but also highlights their significance within sports and arts during Britain's rich cultural heritage
