A Morning at Tattersalls
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the vibrant energy and bustling atmosphere of a horse sale in early 20th century England. Created by Robert Polhill Bevan, this exquisite print showcases his mastery of black chalk and coloured washes on paper. In this scene, we see a group of buyers, sellers, owners, and bloodstock auctioneers gathered at Tattersalls market in Newmarket. The focal point is a magnificent thoroughbred being paraded by its groom, drawing the attention of potential buyers. Dressed in their finest attire, men wearing bowler hats engage in animated conversations as they assess the horses on offer. The composition exudes an Edwardian charm with its depiction of elegant architecture and well-dressed individuals immersed in the world of horse trading. Bevan's meticulous attention to detail brings each character to life while capturing the essence of this lively event. This remarkable artwork is part of Yale Center for British Art's prestigious Paul Mellon Collection. As it falls under public domain due to its age, it continues to inspire art enthusiasts worldwide without any restrictions on use or reproduction. Through "A Morning at Tattersalls" viewers are transported back in time to experience the excitement and anticipation that surrounded these horse auctions. It serves as both a visual delight and historical documentation of an important aspect of English culture – showcasing not only Bevan's artistic talent but also providing valuable insights into society during that era.
