EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent racing dog Modish, a proud descendant of Trickster and Midnight. The portrait captures Modish's regal stature and athletic build, highlighting her prowess as a champion racer. In this particular image, Modish is depicted with her adorable pups in a cozy kennel, symbolizing her role as both a fierce competitor and nurturing mother. Owned by Colonel Thornton, Modish was an esteemed member of the racing community during the vibrant Regency era. This copperplate engraving by J. Scott beautifully reproduces an illustration by Sawrey Gilpin from The Sporting Magazine, or Monthly Calendar of the Transactions of the Turf and the Chace in 1796. The image exudes a sense of energy and excitement associated with horse racing and hare coursing during that time period. It transports us back to an era when sportsmanship thrived on open fields where spectators eagerly cheered for their favorite competitors. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, we are reminded not only of Modish's exceptional talent but also of the rich history surrounding equestrian sports. This print serves as a timeless tribute to one extraordinary canine athlete who left an indelible mark on the world of horseracing.
