EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the thrilling moment when two legendary racehorses, The Flying Dutchman and Voltigeur, competed in a great match at York Racecourse on May 15th, 1851. From the pages of "Picturesque History of Yorkshire" published around 1900 by Ken Welsh, this image encapsulates the essence of horse racing as a sport that has captivated audiences for centuries. The photograph showcases the intense competition between these magnificent horses as they gallop down the track with incredible speed and grace. The jockeys atop them demonstrate their exceptional skill in guiding their steeds towards victory. The atmosphere is electric, with an English crowd eagerly watching every stride. York Racecourse itself provides a picturesque backdrop for this historic event. Its lush green fields and grandstands filled with spectators create a sense of anticipation and excitement. This snapshot freezes time, allowing us to witness this iconic moment in sporting history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of equestrian artistry, we are reminded of the timeless allure of horse racing – a sport that continues to enthrall millions worldwide. It serves as a testament to human fascination with speed, competition, and our deep connection with these majestic creatures who have been our companions throughout history.
