EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sketches at the Islington Horse Show" takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of a bygone era. Created by Alfred Chantrey Corbould in 1875, this print captures the essence of one of London's most prestigious equestrian events. The image is filled with an array of magnificent horses and their riders, showcasing various classes and disciplines. From elegant cover hacks to powerful stallions, each animal exudes grace and strength. The attention to detail in depicting different horse breeds is remarkable – from trotters to shire horses, every type seems to be represented here. As we delve deeper into the scene, we witness riders demonstrating their exceptional horsemanship skills. Whether it's class XII weight carriers or class VI ponies carrying young jockeys with confidence, each participant showcases their dedication and passion for these majestic creatures. Amidst all the action stands "The Squire" perhaps a renowned figure within the equestrian community at that time. His presence adds an air of authority and admiration among both participants and spectators alike. This engraving not only serves as a visual feast for horse enthusiasts but also offers us a glimpse into Victorian society's fascination with equine pursuits. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people found solace in witnessing these beautiful animals' power and elegance. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand the excitement and grandeur of the Islington Horse
