This unique novelty in the programme showcases the vibrant sports culture of India during that era. The print, part of a private collection, was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on December 17,1892. In this lively scene, we witness the excitement and energy surrounding this unconventional race. Participants from various backgrounds come together to compete in this thrilling event held at Threadneedle Street in India. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of Indian culture and Asian traditions. The image transports us to a time when horse racing was not only about speed but also about celebrating diversity and cultural exchange. It serves as a reminder of how sports can bridge gaps between different communities and bring people together. This remarkable artwork by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty within it.
