This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and exclusivity of the Ascot Racecourse in 1895, as privileged racegoers gather in the Enclosure before the highly anticipated Ascot Gold Cup race. Dressed in their finest attire, the upper class socialites enjoy a day of leisure and entertainment, sipping on champagne and placing their bets. The men don top hats and tails, while the women wear elegant gowns and large hats adorned with feathers and flowers. Despite the air of elegance and refinement, the presence of police officers serves as a reminder of the potential for trouble in the crowded and excitable atmosphere of the racecourse. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the social hierarchy of the time, with the privileged class enjoying a day of luxury and indulgence, while the authorities worked to maintain order and ensure the safety of all in attendance.
