Notes at a Military Steeplechase - A Glimpse into the Thrills and Perils of 19th Century Horse Racing
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, titled "Notes at a Military Steeplechase" offers us a fascinating glimpse into the world of horse racing in the 19th century. Created by an English School artist and part of a private collection, this print captures the intensity and excitement surrounding military steeplechases. The scene depicted showcases a thrilling moment during the race as horses leap over an open gap fence. The wrong move could result in disaster, as suggested by the notes scribbled on this artwork. With twelve feet of water awaiting any misstep, it's clear that these riders face both danger and exhilaration. The engraving beautifully portrays fair comforters observing from afar, their expressions reflecting concern for those daring participants who risk it all for victory. This illustration originally appeared in The Graphic on August 10th, 1889 – providing readers with an immersive visual experience. Brought to life through meticulous detail and skillful execution, this lithograph transports us back to an era when military steeplechases were highly anticipated events filled with adrenaline-pumping moments. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder has preserved this historical gem for our appreciation today. As we admire this artwork, let us marvel at the bravery exhibited by these skilled equestrians while acknowledging their dedication to pushing boundaries within horse racing history.
