EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken at Epsom Racecourse in Surrey, England on the Great Metropolitan Day in 1925, we are transported back to a time of elegance and excitement. The focal point of the image is Lord Lascelles and Prince Henry, two prominent figures from British aristocracy, dressed impeccably in their bowler hats and spats. Surrounded by a sea of spectators adorned in fashionable 1920s attire, the atmosphere is electric as they eagerly await the start of the Great Metropolitan Handicap – undoubtedly the highlight race of the day. Binoculars are raised to get a closer look at the action unfolding on the track. The presence of His Royal Highness, The Duke of Gloucester adds an air of prestige to this prestigious event. As one can imagine, this gathering attracts not only horse racing enthusiasts but also members of high society who come together to witness thrilling races while showcasing their own social status. This print captures a moment frozen in time; it encapsulates both the glamour and thrill associated with horse racing events during that era. It serves as a reminder that even though times may change, certain traditions endure – such as gathering at iconic racecourses like Epsom Downs for an unforgettable day filled with exhilarating races.
