EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Plenipotentiary, the triumphant winner of the prestigious Derby Stakes at Epsom in 1834. Engraved by R. W. Smart and Charles Hunt, this exquisite aquatint showcases the extraordinary talent of John Frederick Herring Snr, a renowned artist of his time. Measuring 31.1x41.9 cm, this remarkable piece now resides in a private collection, cherished for its historical significance and artistic brilliance. The ownership is attributed to S. Batson, Esq. , who recognized the value and beauty encapsulated within this masterpiece. Plenipotentiary's victory is immortalized through this artwork as it portrays not only the racehorse but also its skilled jockey P. Connelly riding with utmost grace and determination towards triumph on that fateful day. The intricate details captured in every stroke reveal Herring's mastery as he brings life to both horse and rider. The intensity of their connection is palpable; you can almost feel the adrenaline coursing through their veins as they gallop towards glory. As we gaze upon this enchanting engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to a time when horseracing was more than just a sport – it was an embodiment of strength, skill, and sheer willpower. Let us celebrate Plenipotentiary's momentous achievement and pay homage to all those who have dedicated themselves to equestrian excellence
