About the piece
Created in 1834 by James Pollard, this oil on canvas captures the vibrant atmosphere of the Epsom Races. Pollard, a master of British sporting art, meticulously details jockeys in colorful silks maneuvering their mounts across the turf. The painting serves as both a historical record of the turf and a sophisticated decorative piece, showcasing the movement of the horses against the rolling English countryside.
