This photo print, titled "Ormonde, 1883-1904" (1911), takes us back to the vibrant world of British horse racing in the late 19th century. The image is part of the renowned book "British Sports and Sportsmen Part 1" published in London in 1911. In this monochrome masterpiece, we witness two men standing proudly beside a magnificent stallion named Ormonde. The jockey and his companion exude an air of confidence and camaraderie as they pose for the camera. Ormonde's sleek physique showcases his status as a thoroughbred racehorse, symbolizing power and elegance. The photograph transports us to a bygone era when horse racing was not only a sport but also an art form deeply ingrained in British culture. It captures the essence of Victorian Britain, with its aristocratic traditions and love for equestrian pursuits. Amongst these historical figures are notable names such as Hugh Grosvenor, the first Duke of Westminster; John Porter; Tom Cannon; Colin George Barrett; Fred Archer - all legendary sportsmen who left their mark on horse racing history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from over a century ago, we can't help but marvel at how it encapsulates both the spirit of competition and the timeless beauty found within this beloved sport.
