EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous victory in horse racing history. Meet "The Baron" the triumphant champion of the prestigious Great St. Leger race in 1845. The talented artist, Mr. J. F. Herring, skillfully brings this magnificent creature to life on paper. "The Baron" is a dark chestnut horse standing proudly at about 15 hands and 3 inches high. His powerful head boasts strength and bone structure, with a prominent forehead that projects confidence and determination. As our eyes move down his elegant neck, we notice its slight shortness but lightness in appearance. Although not considered flashy or showy like some horses, "The Baron" possesses an undeniable aura of wiriness that sets him apart from his competitors on the racetrack. This exceptional equine athlete was bred by Mr. Watts of Jockey Hall in Kildare and is under his ownership. Published in the renowned "Illustrated London News" journal of 1845 (Vol VII), this engraving showcases both artistry and historical significance for sports enthusiasts and admirers alike. Step into the world of nineteenth-century British horse racing as you gaze upon this remarkable portrait capturing "The Baron's" victorious spirit forever frozen in time.
