EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Skyscraper, 1911" takes us back to the early 20th century world of horse racing. The image features Thunderbolt, a magnificent racehorse, with an unknown jockey on his back. This portrait was originally published in the book "British Sports and Sportsmen: Racing Coursing and Steeplechasing", edited by William Scarth Dixon in 1911. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless charm to this snapshot from Britain's sporting history. The photograph perfectly captures the grace and power of Thunderbolt as he stands tall against the backdrop of an unidentified skyscraper. The unknown jockey exudes confidence as he sits atop this majestic creature, ready for their next thrilling race. This image not only celebrates the beauty of horse racing but also highlights its significance within British culture during the Edwardian era. It serves as a reminder of how sports like these were cherished forms of entertainment that brought people together. Although we do not know who captured this moment or precisely where it took place, it is through photographs like these that we can appreciate the skill and dedication required in equestrian sports. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported to a time when men and horses formed unbreakable partnerships on racetracks across Britain.
