About this work

This 1799 print by Thomas Rowlandson, titled Racing, shows a race across a rolling hillside with galloping horses and jockeys in the foreground. Spectators on horseback and in carriages watch as a figure lies sprawled on the ground while a dog runs nearby and a woman in a white dress reaches out in alarm. The hand-colored drawing is rendered in ink and washes, with a small building and more carriages visible in the distance.
