EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the unexpected moment during the 1912 Horse Show when jockey Victor Mather tumbled from the back of 'Pagan Kin.' The image, created by Harris & Ewing, documents the split-second reaction of those in attendance as they watch Mather's fall from the horse's saddle. Mather, dressed in the traditional jockey silks, is shown mid-air, arms outstretched, as 'Pagan Kin' continues its stride without him. The incident took place at an outdoor horse show, likely held in the United States, possibly in Washington D.C. or another major equestrian event location. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the risks and thrills inherent in horse racing and riding. Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C., captured this moment with exceptional clarity and detail, making it an invaluable addition to the historical record of American horse shows and the African American jockeys who participated in them. The photograph is believed to have been taken by George W. Harris or Martha Ewing Newcombe, both accomplished photographers for Harris & Ewing.
