About the piece

Painted in 1825 by William Webb, this equestrian study captures the chestnut horse Euphrates in a moment of stillness on the racecourse. A jockey in blue and white silks sits proudly mounted, while two attendants prepare nearby with gear and refreshments. The soft, expansive sky and distant landscape reflect the refined atmosphere of early 19th-century British sporting life.
