EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Earthen 'Chatti' Race at the Baghi Polo-Club Race-Meeting, Bengal" transports us back to a bygone era in India. Created by John Charlton in 1893, this print captures the vibrant energy and cultural significance of horse racing in colonial Bengal. In this scene, we witness a thrilling moment during the race as horses thunder down the track with incredible speed and grace. The jockeys skillfully maneuver their steeds, showcasing their equestrian prowess amidst a cheering crowd. The Baghi Polo-Club Race-Meeting was undoubtedly an important social event that brought together people from all walks of life. What makes this particular race unique is the use of earthen "chattis" or clay pots, which are attached to each horse's saddle. These chattis add an extra element of excitement and challenge to the competition as they rattle and clatter throughout the race. This traditional practice reflects the rich Indian heritage and its deep connection with nature. As we delve into this enchanting artwork, we are transported not only to a time long gone but also immersed in Indian culture and history. It serves as a reminder of how sports can transcend boundaries and bring communities together through shared passion and exhilaration. Through this engraving, Charlton beautifully captures both the thrill of horseracing and its cultural significance within Bengali society at that time.
