EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Creeper, a racehorse foaled in 1787. The image, captured by an English School artist in the 19th century, is part of a private collection. It was originally featured as an illustration for "Portraits of Celebrated Racehorses" by Thomas Henry Taunton, published in 1887. Creeper's powerful presence is evident as he gallops across the frame with grace and determination. This photograph transports us back to a time when horse racing was at its peak, capturing the essence of athleticism and speed that defined this beloved sport. The monochromatic palette adds depth and nostalgia to the image, emphasizing the historical significance of Creeper's legacy. As we gaze upon this magnificent creature frozen in time, we are reminded of the rich history behind horse racing and its enduring appeal. Beyond its artistic value, this print also serves as a testament to our fascination with animals and their role in human society. Horses like Creeper were not only admired for their beauty but also revered for their strength and agility. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from the 19th century for us to appreciate today. It allows us to delve into history while celebrating both artistry and nature's wonders through photography.
