EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the grandeur and excitement of Melbourne Cup Day in 1911, as captured in this stunning photograph from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive. The iconic image showcases a lively scene at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne, Australia, where thousands of racegoers gathered to witness the running of the most famous horse race in the country. Dressed in their finest attire, the elegantly dressed ladies and dapper gentlemen exude an air of sophistication and excitement, their faces reflecting a mix of anticipation and joy. Hats adorned with flowers and feathers, elaborate dresses, and smart suits were the order of the day, as the fashionable crowd mingled and socialized, enjoying the festivities and the beautiful autumn weather. The men, many wearing top hats and carrying binoculars, can be seen gathered around the grandstand, their eyes fixed on the racetrack, while the women, some with parasols shielding them from the sun, chat animatedly and admire the horses and their jockeys as they parade before the race. In the background, the grandstand looms large, a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the event. The horses and their riders make their way to the starting gate, the tension in the air palpable as the crowd holds its collective breath, waiting for the race to begin. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the social scene of Melbourne Cup Day in 1911, a time when the event was as much about fashion, socializing, and enjoying the day out as it was about the race itself.
