EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the excitement and grandeur of "The Longchamps races: Le Grand Prix de Paris" as depicted in the illustrated supplement from Sunday 6 June 1875 in "Le Figaro". The drawing, skillfully executed by Lancon, transports us back to a time when horse racing was not only a sport but also a social event that brought together people from all walks of life. In this engraving, we see the sprawling hippodrome filled with spectators eagerly watching the thrilling race unfold. The horses gallop across the track with incredible speed and grace, their jockeys urging them on towards victory. The atmosphere is electric, as cheers and shouts fill the air. LanAzon's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pen. From the intricate patterns on each jockey's uniform to the expressions of anticipation on the faces of spectators, he brings this momentous occasion to life. This print by Leonard de Selva allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind LanAzon's work but also provides a glimpse into an era long gone. It reminds us of our enduring fascination with horse racing and how it has remained an integral part of our cultural heritage. Whether you are a fan of horse racing or simply appreciate fine art, this image will transport you back in time and ignite your imagination.
