EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the excitement of the Drivers Marathon, a thrilling race that took place in London. The event, which occurred this year, showcased the city's vibrant racing culture and drew participants from various backgrounds. Among the contenders was none other than the esteemed Lord Mayor of London himself. The race unfolded along the picturesque Hyde Park-Richmond route, providing a stunning backdrop for both competitors and spectators alike. As drivers maneuvered their carriages through winding paths and open roads, they were accompanied by a diverse array of animals including horses and ponies. The presence of these magnificent creatures added an extra layer of charm to the already exhilarating event. The image showcases not only the fast-paced action but also highlights some remarkable details. A female driver can be seen confidently steering her motor vehicle amidst a sea of male competitors, breaking gender stereotypes with her skillful driving prowess.

Created by Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame, this color lithograph perfectly captures the energy and spirit of this iconic London race. It serves as a testament to both British sporting heritage and European artistic talent.
