EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Arnold Genthe in 1932, transports us back in time to the picturesque East Hampton Horse Show in New York, United States. The image is a testament to the rich equestrian heritage of America during the 1930s. Genthe skillfully captures the essence of the event as riders and onlookers come together in the lush, outdoor setting. Horses and their riders, both male and female, are seen in various stages of competition, with some in mid-gallop over jumps, while others prepare for their turn. The onlookers, dressed in fashionable attire of the era, watch intently from the sidelines, their expressions a mix of excitement, anticipation, and admiration. The photograph, which is part of the Library of Congress's extensive collection, is a nitrate negative, adding to its historical significance and value. The image is a stunning example of Genthe's mastery of the medium, with the contrast between the dark horses and the light-toned grass and spectators creating a visually striking composition. The East Hampton Horse Show, held against the backdrop of beautiful East Hampton, New York, was a beloved tradition in the United States during the 1930s. This photograph not only offers a glimpse into the past but also serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of horse shows and the connection between humans and horses.
