The Cart Horse - A Glimpse into the Life of a Racehorse in 18th Century Britain
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Cart Horse" takes us back to July 20,1789, offering a poignant snapshot of an important aspect of British history. Created by the talented artist Thomas Rowlandson, this hand-colored aquatint showcases his exceptional skill in capturing the essence of life during this era. In this scene, we witness a powerful draft horse collapsing from exhaustion and overwork. The vibrant colors bring to life the desperation and suffering experienced by these noble creatures as they tirelessly served their human counterparts. The horse's collapse serves as a stark reminder of the physical toll that road transport placed on these magnificent animals. Amidst the chaos surrounding the fallen horse, we see people gathering around - a farrier attending to its wounds and a veterinary surgeon desperately trying to save its life. These individuals represent different professions tied closely to horses' well-being and highlight society's growing concern for animal welfare during this period. Rowlandson masterfully captures not only the physical strain endured by these horses but also evokes emotions such as sympathy and compassion within viewers. This artwork stands as both an artistic masterpiece and an important historical document shedding light on transportation practices in 18th century Britain. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print is part of Rowlandson's larger series entitled "The Life of a Racehorse or The High-Mettled Racer". It serves
