EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by G. Adams in 1926, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Pontefract Races in Yorkshire, England. The image beautifully depicts a snapshot of racegoers immersing themselves in the excitement and thrill of horse racing. The landscape setting provides a picturesque backdrop for this momentous occasion, with rolling hills stretching into the distance. As our gaze shifts towards the foreground, we witness an intriguing mix of male and female spectators eagerly observing the races unfold before them. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of that era - men donning smart suits and hats while women showcase elegant dresses adorned with stylish accessories. Their animated expressions reveal their intense engagement with each race as they cheer on their chosen horses. Horses thunder past at incredible speeds, their powerful strides leaving behind a cloud of dust that adds dynamism to this frozen frame in time. The sheer energy emanating from both riders and steeds is palpable through G. Adams' lens. This remarkable print not only captures a significant sporting event but also serves as a historical testament to an era long gone by. It invites us to imagine ourselves amidst these passionate racegoers, experiencing firsthand the exhilaration and camaraderie that permeated such events nearly a century ago.
