This print transports us back to the glamorous world of Royal Ascot in 1924. The image captures a general view of the scene in both the prestigious Royal box and Royal enclosure, offering a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur that surrounded this iconic event. Intriguingly, it also showcases the presence of the esteemed Royal Party, adding an extra layer of significance to this historical moment. As we peer into the past through this monochrome lens, we are reminded of a time when horse racing was not only a sport but also an occasion for high society to come together. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication, with impeccably dressed men donning top hats and tails while women showcase their finest attire complete with extravagant hats. The atmosphere is palpable as spectators eagerly await the start of another thrilling race.
