“Stella and Alice Grey / Lantern and Whalebone ‘Passing the Stand’ in their Great Match for $2000 in double harness over the Union Course L.I. 1855…”

An especially attractive and lively depiction of a favorite mid 19th century American horse racing event.  The drivers are shown concentrating intensely, driving the wide-eyed and muscular horses that pull the sulkies through clouds of dust and past the viewing stand.
