The Ascot Meeting of 1901 - A Glimpse into the Glorious World of Horse Racing
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by an English photographer in the early 20th century, captures the vibrant atmosphere of The Ascot Meeting of 1901. The print showcases a momentous event in British sporting history, as racegoers gather to witness thrilling races and revel in the excitement that permeates through every corner. The image transports us back to June 19th, where merry galas were held amidst a backdrop of elegance and prestige. Two prominent races take center stage - the Gold Cup and the Royal Hunt Cup - drawing esteemed figures such as Mr. George Edwardes, who was known for his contributions to musical theater. As we peer into this snapshot from yesteryear, our eyes are drawn to various elements within the frame. The bustling paddock is filled with beautifully adorned horses eagerly awaiting their turn on the track. A magnificent rose tree adds a touch of natural beauty amidst all the human activity. In particular focus is "Stealaway" captured at its triumphant moment as it crosses the finish line first in one of these prestigious races – perhaps even securing victory in Wokingham Stakes or Hardwicke Stakes. This photograph immortalizes not only a specific event but also encapsulates an era when horseracing was celebrated with utmost grandeur and passion. It serves as a testament to both exceptional photography skills and an enduring love for this
