Longchamps Racecourse, Paris, Circa 1901: A Timeless Moment of Equestrian Charm This illustration, hailing from the esteemed March of the Women Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to the early 20th century and the iconic Longchamps Racecourse in Paris. The scene unfolds with a green-coated gentleman, elegantly dressed in the height of fashion, engaging in a lively conversation with a young woman, dressed in a vibrant red riding coat, as they share an intimate moment astride his horse. The serene atmosphere of the racecourse is captured in this beautiful illustration, with the lush greenery of the surroundings and the grandeur of the horses on full display. The gentleman, with a look of deep concentration, seems to be imparting some wise words to the young woman, who listens intently, her eyes fixed on his face. The woman, in turn, holds the reins with a confident grip, her red coat contrasting starkly against the green landscape, highlighting her bold and independent spirit. The illustration, titled 'Les Maitres de la Caricature: Issue December Job,' is a testament to the artistic prowess of the era, with intricate details and a sense of movement that brings the scene to life. The use of bold colors and dynamic brushstrokes adds to the overall charm of the image, making it a must-have for any collection of equestrian art or vintage illustrations. As we gaze upon this timeless moment, we are transported back to a bygone era, where the thrill of the race and the elegance of the riders came together in perfect harmony at the historic Longchamps Racecourse.
