EDITORS COMMENTS
John Sturgess: A Victorian Master of Equine Artistry (Circa 1870) John Sturgess (1823-1896) was a prominent British artist and illustrator, celebrated for his depictions of racehorses, horse racing, and related subjects during the Victorian era. This evocative print, dating back to circa 1870, showcases Sturgess's exceptional talent and passion for equestrian art. Sturgess's career spanned over five decades, during which he produced an extensive body of work that continues to captivate audiences today. His artistry extended beyond traditional oil paintings, as he also excelled in creating detailed and intricately designed illustrations for various publications. In this particular print, Sturgess masterfully captures the essence of horse racing in the late 19th century. The composition is dominated by a powerful racehorse, its muscles taut and veins bulging, as it strains at the bit, ready to burst into a gallop. The jockey, poised in the saddle, leans forward, his eyes focused intently on the finish line. The background is filled with the excitement and energy of the racecourse, with spectators cheering and waving their hats, while grooms and trainers attend to the horses. Sturgess's ability to convey the raw power and emotion of both horse and rider is truly remarkable. His meticulous attention to detail, from the intricate patterns on the jockey's silks to the individual hairs on the horse's coat, adds depth and authenticity to his work. This print serves as a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of horse racing during the Victorian era. It is a testament to John Sturgess's unwavering dedication to his craft and his ability to immortalize the beauty and spirit of the horse.
