EDITORS COMMENTS
This pochoir print from March 1921 showcases the elegance and sophistication of gentlemen at the races. The front cover of Monsieur magazine, beautifully illustrated by Maurice Taquoy, transports us to a bygone era filled with style and glamour. In this scene, we witness a jockey being weighed in the background, adding an authentic touch to the racing atmosphere. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every element of fashion is meticulously depicted - from walking sticks and canes to coats and cloaks. These dapper gentlemen exude confidence as they don bowler hats, gloves, wing collars, and top hats. The racecourse serves as a backdrop for this display of refined society. Binoculars are raised towards the track while conversations are exchanged among friends. Horseracing was not only about competition but also an opportunity for socializing among high-class individuals. Taquoy's illustration captures both the excitement of horseracing and the essence of early 20th-century European fashion. This artwork emanates timeless charm that continues to captivate viewers today. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this print stands as a testament to Taquoy's talent in capturing moments that transcend time. It offers us a glimpse into an era where elegance reigned supreme on racetracks across France.
