"Paces: A Journey Through Time and Emotion" Step into the world of paces, where lithographs and engravings come alive to tell tales of horses, fairs, treks, and more. In the first lithograph, we witness the majestic paces of a horse as it gallops through an open field. The energy is palpable, capturing the essence of freedom and strength. Moving on to Barnet Horse and Cattle Fair, another lithograph transports us to a bustling fairground filled with vibrant colors and lively crowds. Here, horses prance gracefully while cattle graze peacefully in the background. Engaging our senses further is Maruja by Bret Harte - an engraving that portrays a captivating story. We find ourselves immersed in its narrative as characters navigate their own unique paces through life's trials and tribulations. Swallow takes us on a different journey altogether - one set during the Great Trek. This engraving depicts courage amidst adversity as pioneers forge ahead with determination etched upon their faces. A last rehearsal at Epsom brings us closer to home but still within the realm of paces. Here we witness trainers putting their favorite racehorse through rigorous exercises before a big event – showcasing dedication and precision required for success. Jottings at Horncastle Horse Fair captures yet another facet of this theme; it showcases scenes from an enchanting fair where buyers haggle over prized horses while sellers proudly parade their finest animals around dusty arenas. But not all they can joyful or celebratory; sometimes fear creeps in too. In one lithograph, we see a bear grinning menacingly at its enemy who retreats hastily just a few steps away – reminding us that even in moments of danger or confrontation, every step counts. Shifting gears once again is "In Memory of Gordon, " an engraving depicting service among ruins after conflict has ravaged Khartoum.
