EDITORS COMMENTS
In this monochrome print captured by Alfieri, we are transported back to the United Hunt meeting at Lingfield, Surrey on 1st May 1932. The photograph showcases a gathering of distinguished individuals from high society, including the Duke of Norfolk, Bernard Fitzalan-Howard and Marquess Camden. The image exudes an air of elegance and sophistication as these aristocrats don their finest fashion attire for the prestigious event. Men in tailored suits and top hats stand together, exuding confidence and poise against the backdrop of a bustling racecourse. As spectators eagerly await the start of the race, one can almost feel the excitement in the air. The photo not only captures a moment frozen in time but also provides us with a glimpse into an era when horse racing was not just a sport but also an occasion for socializing among elites. Alfieri's skillful use of photography adds depth to this historical snapshot. It allows us to focus on intricate details such as facial expressions, clothing styles, and even subtle gestures that might have otherwise been lost in color distractions. This remarkable piece serves as both a visual feast for vintage enthusiasts and a valuable documentation of early 20th-century European culture. It reminds us that even amidst societal changes over time, certain traditions like horse racing continue to unite people across generations.
