EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Epsom, circa 1910. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing the essence of a moment is undeniable. The photograph showcases the bustling grandstand at Epsom racecourse in Surrey during Derby Day, an event that brought together horse racing enthusiasts from all walks of life. The sheer number of people packed into the grandstand is awe-inspiring, highlighting the immense popularity and excitement surrounding horse races in early 20th century Britain. With a population of just 6,916, it's evident that this event drew crowds from far and wide. The vibrant colors beautifully printed on this card from "The Counties of England - A Geographical Game" add depth and richness to the scene. It's fascinating to see how each county was represented through its notable buildings and products. Epsom Downs provides a picturesque backdrop for this thrilling spectacle. The landscape exudes tranquility despite being filled with eager spectators eagerly anticipating the start of another exhilarating race. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot frozen in time by The Print Collector, we can't help but feel transported back to an era where horse racing was not only a sport but also a social gathering that united communities across England.
