EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic presence of The Duke of Portland's William the Third, a renowned racehorse who triumphed in the Newmarket Stakes and emerged as one of the favorites for the prestigious Derby. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print showcases not only the skillful artistry behind horse racing photography but also its historical significance. The image exudes power and grace as William stands tall, his muscular frame glistening under a coat that hints at his exceptional breeding. With an air of confidence, he gazes into the distance, seemingly aware of his own prowess on the racetrack. This photograph serves as a testament to both his physical beauty and undeniable talent. As one delves deeper into this piece, it becomes evident that it holds more than just aesthetic appeal. It is a snapshot frozen in time from May 1901 when The Illustrated London News featured this illustration. A symbol of sporting excellence during its era, William's victory was undoubtedly celebrated by enthusiasts across England. Now preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to relive history through visual storytelling. It reminds us of our enduring fascination with horseracing and how these magnificent creatures have captivated human hearts for centuries. Intriguingly captured by an anonymous English photographer from years gone by, this timeless image continues to inspire awe and admiration for both equine athleticism and photographic mastery alike.
