EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Ole! The things we do for a photo" taken on 13 May 1946, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment between man and horse. The George Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office has preserved this remarkable image that showcases the deep connection between humans and animals. The photograph captures a racehorse and its rider standing proudly in a vast field of lush greenery. Both figures exude confidence and strength as they strike a pose for the camera. The rider's face is filled with determination, while his firm grip on the leading rein demonstrates his control over the magnificent creature beside him. It is evident that this snapshot was not just another ordinary portrait; it tells a story of dedication and passion. One can only imagine what led up to this precise moment - perhaps hours spent training, grooming, or even bonding with their equine companion. Whatever it may be, both man and horse have willingly come together to create an unforgettable scene frozen in time. As we gaze upon this historical gem from West Sussex County Council's archives, let us appreciate not only the artistry behind capturing such an exquisite shot but also acknowledge the profound bond shared between humans and animals throughout history. This photograph serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with these majestic creatures who have played significant roles in shaping our lives since time immemorial.
