EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the essence of a horse show in the charming coastal town of Westport, Connecticut between 1911 and 1942. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image transports us back in time to a bygone era. The scene is set against the backdrop of a beautiful outdoor venue, where the lush green grass is dotted with spectators dressed in their finest attire. In the foreground, a rider in a crisp suit and bowtie confidently guides his horse through the ring, its coat glistening in the sunlight. A woman in a stylish hat and long coat watches intently from the sidelines, her expression a mix of excitement and anticipation. The atmosphere is electric, as the sound of hooves pounding against the ground and the cheers of the crowd fill the air. The photograph is a testament to the rich equestrian heritage of Westport and the United States during the 1910s, 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. The use of a nitrate negative adds to the image's historical significance, as this photographic process was popular during this time period. This image, with its timeless appeal, is a treasure in the vast collection of the Library of Congress.
