EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Ascot Races, 1864" takes us back in time to witness the excitement and grandeur of one of England's most prestigious horse racing events. The image showcases a moment frozen in history, captured by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century. The scene is filled with energy as racehorses thunder down the track towards victory. Jockeys clad in vibrant silks guide their powerful steeds with determination and skill. Spectators line the rails, their faces alive with anticipation and awe as they cheer on their favorite contenders. In this snapshot of Ascot Races, we catch a glimpse of some notable trophies that were up for grabs during this iconic event. Among them are the Scottish Chief trophy, Royal Hunt Cup, Ascot Cup, Ascot Gold Cup, Queen's Gold Vase - each symbolizing prestige and glory within the world of horseracing. This print originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on June 18th, 1864 - a testament to its historical significance. Preserved within a private collection today, it serves as a visual reminder of our enduring fascination with equestrian sports and our admiration for these magnificent creatures who captivate us with their speed and grace. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection. As we gaze upon this engraving over a century later, we can't help but be transported back to
