EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a horse show in the picturesque town of Westport, Connecticut between 1911 and 1942. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image transports us back in time to an era of elegance and charm. The scene is set outdoors, with a sprawling green field dotted with horses and riders, surrounded by a curious and engaged crowd. The decade is uncertain, but the fashionable attire of the onlookers suggests the 1920s or 1930s. Men and women, dressed in their Sunday best, gather around the perimeter of the arena, their eyes fixed on the action unfolding before them. A rider, poised and confident, leads his horse through the course, the horse's hooves thudding against the ground. The atmosphere is alive with excitement and anticipation, as the rider and horse leap over jumps and navigate the winding path. This image, captured on a nitrate negative, is a testament to the rich equestrian heritage of America and the enduring allure of the horse show.
