Race Ground (An Excursion to Brighthelmstone), June 1,1790 - A Glimpse into the Thrilling World of Horse Racing in 18th Century Brighton
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a vibrant summer day on June 1,1790, at the Race Ground in Brighthelmstone (now known as Brighton), England. Created by renowned artists Thomas Rowlandson and Samuel Alken Senior, this exquisite aquatint captures the excitement and energy of a horse race during the golden age of equestrian sports. The scene unfolds with an array of finely detailed buildings lining the course, including a grandstand where eager spectators gather to witness the thrilling spectacle. Jockeys clad in colorful attire skillfully guide their magnificent horses towards victory while crowds cheer them on with fervor. The atmosphere is electric as people from all walks of life come together for this exhilarating event. Rowlandson's masterful etching technique combined with Alken's expert use of sepia tones creates a sense of timelessness that transports viewers straight into this historic moment. Every detail, from the post house where weary travelers rest to the bustling crowd filled with anticipation, adds depth and authenticity to this snapshot from another era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece at The Metropolitan Museum of Art or through our own personal collection, we are reminded not only of our shared love for sports but also how traditions like horse racing have shaped our cultural heritage throughout
