EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a historic moment in British horse racing history. The year is 1900, and at the renowned Epsom racecourse in Surrey, Thoroughbred racehorse Diamond Jubilee has emerged victorious in the prestigious Derby. Owned by none other than the Prince of Wales himself, later known as King Edward VII, this magnificent steed was bred by his owner to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. The image showcases the electrifying atmosphere of the event, with a sea of spectators eagerly watching from the stands. Their faces filled with anticipation and excitement as they witness this thrilling display of speed and strength. In an era when horse racing was not only a sport but also a symbol of prestige and social status, Diamond Jubilee's triumph further solidifies his owner's position among Britain's elite. Although captured by an unknown creator, this photograph perfectly encapsulates both the grandeur of Victorian England and its passion for equestrian pursuits. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by King Edward VII during his reign. Preserved within "The Illustrated London News Record of the Glorious Reign of Queen Victoria" this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into a time long gone but forever etched in history.
