The Count Della Catena and Count Strickland - A Satirical Snapshot of European Racing Culture, 1893
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This vibrant lithograph from Vanity Fair captures the essence of European racing culture in the late 19th century. Created by an anonymous English artist, this satirical cartoon features two prominent figures - The Count Della Catena and Count Strickland. The scene takes place on May 4th, 1893, as both counts engage in a fierce horse race. With their exaggerated caricatures and comical expressions, the artist presents a scathing satire on the pompousness and competitiveness that often surrounded such events. The central figure is The Count Della Catena, portrayed as a jockey atop his magnificent steed. His flamboyant attire reflects his Corsican heritage while also mocking the ostentatious fashion trends of the time. Beside him rides Count Strickland, representing France with his tricolor sash proudly displayed. Through this artwork's clever composition and vivid colors, we are transported to an era when horse racing was not only about sport but also about social status and national pride. It offers us a glimpse into European society's fascination with equestrian pursuits during this period. As we admire this historical print from Peter Jackson Collection's private archives, let us appreciate how art can capture moments in time while simultaneously critiquing societal norms. This piece serves as a reminder that even over a century later, human nature remains susceptible to vanity and competition
