Taken in 1911 by an unknown creator, this portrait showcases the prince's passion for horse racing and his remarkable equestrian skills. Prince Kinsky was not only an esteemed diplomat serving as Austro-Hungarian attache to Britain but also a celebrated jockey. In fact, he achieved great fame when he triumphantly won the prestigious Grand National race in 1883 riding none other than Zoedone herself. The image exudes elegance and nobility as Prince Karl gazes confidently into the distance while sitting atop his majestic steed. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to this snapshot from British Sports and Sportsmen: Racing Coursing and Steeplechasing edited by William Scarth Dixon. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse of a man who effortlessly balanced his aristocratic duties with his love for sportsmanship. It serves as a testament to Prince Kinsky's dedication to both country and sport - embodying grace, skill, and determination that made him an icon of his era. As we admire this historical artifact today, it reminds us of the enduring legacy left behind by individuals like Prince Karl - those who excelled not only in their professional pursuits but also embraced their passions wholeheartedly.
