EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Epsom Races in 1856, a moment frozen in time by Benjamin Herring's skilled engraving. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with spectators eagerly watching the thrilling race unfold before their eyes. The atmosphere is electric as onlookers cheer and gasp, their faces reflecting a mix of excitement and anticipation. In the foreground, we see the magnificent racehorses thundering down the track, their powerful strides propelling them towards victory. Each horse exudes strength and determination as they compete for glory in this prestigious event. It is clear that only one will emerge as the ultimate champion. The setting itself adds to the allure of this historic occasion. Set against the backdrop of Surrey's picturesque landscape, Epsom Racecourse stands proud, its grandstands packed with eager fans who have come from far and wide to witness this spectacle. Herring's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this engraving to life - from each individual spectator caught up in the thrill of horseracing to every blade of grass beneath their feet. This print not only commemorates an important moment in sporting history but also serves as a testament to Herring's artistic prowess. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time; we can almost hear the thunderous hooves pounding against earth and feel our hearts racing alongside those present at that very moment.
