EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history, showcasing the excitement and thrill of the Vanderbilt race. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this candid shot transports us back to the early 1900s when automobiles were still a novelty. The image depicts a scene from the legendary Vanderbilt Cup race held on Long Island. The intense competition is palpable as cars speed around a turn, their tires screeching against the pavement. In just fifteen seconds, these daring drivers change gears and push their vehicles to their limits. The photograph beautifully showcases both the elegance of vintage automobiles and the determination of those behind the wheel. It's as if time has stood still, allowing us to witness this historic event unfold before our eyes. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of art, we can't help but feel admiration for W. K. Vanderbilt's contribution to automobile racing. His passion for speed and innovation shines through as he proudly presents his trophy to George Dawson, who skillfully navigated his Marmon car during this thrilling race. This print serves not only as a visual record but also as a testament to human ingenuity and progress in transportation. It reminds us that even in its earliest days, photography had already become an invaluable tool for capturing significant moments in history.
