EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'East Hampton Horse Show, 1933,' captures the essence of an idyllic American pastime during the Roaring Twenties. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image transports us back in time to a picturesque outdoor setting in East Hampton, New York. The scene unfolds before us as riders and onlookers gather at the horse show, their focus fixed on the action taking place in the center of the frame. Genthe expertly frames the image with a group of men and women, some on horseback and others observing from the sidelines. The women, dressed in elegant hats and dresses, exude an air of sophistication and grace, while the men, dressed in suits and hats, display a sense of excitement and anticipation. In the background, horses and their riders prepare for their turn in the ring, their coats glistening in the sunlight. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of equestrian culture in America during the 1930s. The nitrate negative, which has been preserved in the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a horse show in East Hampton, New York, nearly a century ago.
