EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Stella and Alice Grey - Lantern and Whalebone, Passing the Stand" takes us back to a thrilling moment in history. Captured in 1855 by an anonymous American School artist, this image showcases two magnificent horses competing in a double harness race over the Union Course on Long Island. The intensity of the competition is palpable as Stella and Alice Grey gallop side by side, their powerful muscles glistening with sweat. The skilled jockeys hold tight reins, guiding their steeds with precision through every turn. The crowd watches eagerly from the stands, their excitement filling the air. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only a fierce sporting event but also a testament to human ingenuity. The elegant carriage behind these majestic creatures represents man's ability to tame nature's raw power for transportation purposes. As we delve into this historic scene, it becomes clear that horse racing was more than just a sport; it was an integral part of American culture during the 19th century. This image serves as a reminder of our deep connection with animals and our relentless pursuit of victory. Preserved within this private collection, this remarkable lithograph allows us to relive an era when speed reigned supreme on racetracks across North America. It is both a tribute to these extraordinary animals and an homage to those who dedicated themselves to harnessing their incredible potential.
