EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time at the prestigious Ascot racecourse on 20th June 1980. Despite the rainy weather, a stylish couple can be seen strolling leisurely under their umbrellas, taking in the excitement of the first day of racing. The man and woman are depicted from behind, adding an air of mystery as they shield themselves from the elements with their elegant attire.
In the background, spectators can be seen using binoculars to get a closer look at the thrilling horse races unfolding before them. The natural world serves as a picturesque backdrop to this scene of British sporting tradition.
The image exudes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when attending horse races was not just about placing bets, but also about enjoying a day out in style. The timeless charm of Ascot is evident in every detail captured by the photographer's lens.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported back to a time when top hats and cravats were still fashionable accessories for both men and women. This archival piece serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of horse racing as both a sport and social event.
