EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "With the West African Frontier Force, a Race Meeting at Jebba on the Niger" takes us back to 19th century Nigeria. Created by Percy F. S. Spence and now part of a private collection, this print captures an exhilarating moment in history. In this scene, we are transported to Jebba on the Niger River, where members of the West African Frontier Force have gathered for a thrilling race meeting. The image showcases the vibrant energy and excitement that surrounds such an event. Horses gallop across the track as spectators cheer them on with fervor. This engraving offers a rare glimpse into colonial-era Nigeria, highlighting both its cultural diversity and its love for equestrian sports. It serves as a testament to the rich heritage of horse racing in West Africa. The meticulous attention to detail in Spence's work allows us to immerse ourselves fully in this historical setting. From the intricate patterns adorning traditional attire to the expressions of anticipation on people's faces, every element adds depth and authenticity to this snapshot from another time. As we admire this litho print from Fine Art Finder, it reminds us of how art can transport us through time and space while preserving moments that might otherwise be lost forever.
