About this work

A crowded racecourse scene shows horses being led past a wooden weighing booth, where a jockey sits on a weighing scale while onlookers watch. Spectators in period dress and top hats fill the foreground, and a figure on a raised carriage waves at the crowd. This print, titled Racing [set of six]: 2. Weighing, was made by Thomas Rowlandson in 1799.
