EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "At the Leicester Agricultural Show" takes us back to a bygone era in 19th century England. Captured by an English photographer, this image showcases the bustling atmosphere of the renowned agricultural show. The scene is filled with excitement as people from all walks of life gather to witness this grand event. In the foreground, a shorthorn calf stands proudly as it claims first prize at the show. The surrounding area is teeming with activity - army personnel on horseback, elegantly adorned carriages, and even a pony catching our attention. Amongst the crowd are notable figures such as Esquire Mountaineer and Champion Shorthorn Cow, symbolizing excellence in their respective categories. The photograph also captures other highlights of the show including prized hackney horses and cattle jumping competitions. Intriguingly, we catch a glimpse of troops from the armed forces who have come to enjoy this spectacle alongside civilians. This snapshot offers us a unique insight into not only agricultural practices but also social dynamics during that time period. Preserved within a private collection for years, this historical gem now resurfaces through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection. Through its meticulous composition and expert photography techniques, this print allows us to step back in time and immerse ourselves in an extraordinary moment at one of England's most celebrated agricultural shows.
