EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "At the racecourse: fallen" captures a dramatic moment at a steeplechase event in the 19th century. The chromolitho artwork, created by an anonymous European School artist, showcases a thrilling scene that is both educational and visually striking. In this image, we see jockeys and their magnificent horses racing towards a water jump obstacle. However, one rider has unfortunately experienced an accident and has fallen from his horse into the water ditch. Spectators watch in awe as they witness this unexpected mishap unfold before their eyes. The composition of the artwork beautifully conveys the intensity of horse racing with its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. The fence surrounding the racecourse adds to the sense of excitement while highlighting the danger involved in such sporting events. This print serves as an educational tool, likely part of Liebig's collection of informative cards. It offers viewers a glimpse into historical horse racing culture while reminding us of the risks associated with this exhilarating sport. Overall, "At the racecourse: fallen" is not only aesthetically pleasing but also provides valuable insights into equestrian sports during that era. Its timeless appeal makes it a fascinating addition to any art collection or for those interested in exploring our rich cultural history through visual storytelling.
