EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the summer of 1868 and experience the excitement of a day at the races at Alexandra Park in Muswell Hill, London. This engraving captures the essence of the event, with the large, ornate stand prominently featured on the right-hand side of the image. Dressed in their finest attire, spectators gather to place their bets and watch the horses and jockeys compete in this important racing event. Alexandra Park, located in the north London suburb of Muswell Hill, was a popular destination for Londoners seeking respite from the city during the summer months. The park, which opened in 1863, offered a range of recreational activities, including horse racing, cricket, and boating on the lake. The Alexandra Park Races were among the most anticipated events of the summer season, attracting large crowds and generating significant buzz in the local and national press. The image, dating back to December 1868, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the sartorial styles, social customs, and pastimes of the time. The large stand, which offered shelter from the elements and a vantage point for watching the races, was a testament to the importance of the event and the investment made in its infrastructure. As you take in the details of this historical engraving, imagine the sounds of the crowds cheering, the horses thundering past, and the excitement in the air as the race comes to a close. A true piece of London history, this image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in the city's past or the history of horse racing.
