EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving captures the victorious duo of "Iroquois" and his skilled jockey, Fred Archer, after their triumphant win at the Derby of 1881. The English School's meticulous attention to detail brings this historic moment to life, allowing us a glimpse into the world of horse racing in the 19th century. "Iroquois" with his powerful physique and sleek coat glistening under the sunlight, stands tall as a symbol of strength and determination. His jockey, Fred Archer, exudes confidence as he sits atop his trusted companion, displaying remarkable control over their every move. Their partnership is evident in their synchronized posture and unwavering focus. This engraving was originally featured in The Graphic on June 18th, 1881 - a testament to its significance within the sporting community at that time. It serves as a reminder of not only Iroquois' exceptional talent but also Fred Archer's exceptional skill as one of the most celebrated jockeys of his era. As we admire this timeless piece from our private collection today, it transports us back to an era where horse racing held immense cultural importance. It reminds us that even though times may change, there will always be moments like these that capture our hearts and leave an indelible mark on history.
