EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sailors on Horseback, the Navy Cup at Gibraltar" takes us back to the 19th century when horse riding was not only a sport but also an integral part of military training. The image showcases a group of sailors skillfully mounted on horses, returning home in orthodox fashion after participating in the prestigious Navy Cup. The sailors are depicted with great precision and attention to detail, highlighting their good position and control over their steeds. They exude confidence as they ride through the sandy terrain of Gibraltar, symbolizing their role as protectors of the navy. The scene captures a moment frozen in time by an amateur photographer for The Graphic newspaper on June 7th, 1890. It offers us a glimpse into the camaraderie between naval and army troops within the armed forces. Horse riding was not just a recreational activity for these sailors; it served as both physical exercise and preparation for potential combat situations. The engraving beautifully encapsulates this unique blend of athleticism and military tradition. As we admire this historical print from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we can't help but appreciate how it transports us to another era where equestrian sports were cherished by both men and women alike. This artwork serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of adventure found within our armed forces throughout history.
