EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Mervinia, a racehorse foaled in 1813. The image, taken by an English School photographer in the 19th century, showcases Mervinia's grace and power as she gallops across the field. This particular photograph is part of a private collection and was featured in Thomas Henry Taunton's book "Portraits of Celebrated Racehorses" published in 1887. Mervinia's legacy as a celebrated racehorse is immortalized through this stunning illustration. Her story unfolds within the pages of Taunton's book, which chronicles notable racehorses from 1797 to 1824. As one flips through its historical accounts and beautifully rendered illustrations, it becomes evident that Mervinia holds a special place among these esteemed equine athletes. The image itself exudes nostalgia with its black and white aesthetic, transporting viewers back to the early days of horse racing. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with these magnificent creatures who have captivated human imagination for centuries. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece of history through their fine art collection, allowing us to appreciate not only Mervinia but also the rich heritage associated with horse racing.
