EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling Old Smithfield Market, London, in 1824. This oil on canvas painting by Jacques-Laurent Agasse transports us to a vibrant horse fair, where the air is filled with excitement and anticipation. In this remarkable scene, horse dealers and customers gather in the market square, inspecting piebald horses of various sizes and temperaments. The meticulous details captured by Agasse's brushstrokes allow us to witness every aspect of this thriving business exchange. A group of grooms expertly groom and present the horses for potential buyers while negotiations take place between sellers and interested parties. The atmosphere is alive with energy as deals are struck and transactions completed. Agasse's skillful use of light brings out the rich colors of both human figures and equine subjects, creating a sense of depth that draws viewers into the scene. Each character tells their own story - from eager buyers seeking their perfect steed to seasoned horse dealers showcasing their finest stock. This exquisite print from Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection allows art enthusiasts today to appreciate not only Agasse's talent but also gain insight into an important chapter in London's history. It serves as a reminder that commerce has always been an integral part of our society, spanning across centuries.
