About the piece
Painted in 1866, this work by Edgar Degas explores the speed and tension of the racetrack, a subject that would fascinate him throughout his career. The composition is remarkably dynamic, contrasting the stillness of the fallen jockey with the blurred, powerful movement of horses in mid-stride.
