Painting Description
"Dangerous With James Chapple Up, Winner Of The Derby 1833" is a notable painting by Alfred F. De Prades, an artist renowned for his equestrian portraits in the 19th century. This artwork captures a significant moment in British horse racing history, depicting the racehorse Dangerous, who triumphed in the 1833 Epsom Derby, one of the most prestigious horse races in the United Kingdom. The painting features Dangerous with jockey James Chapple, who guided the horse to victory in this celebrated event.
Alfred F. De Prades, though not as widely known as some of his contemporaries, made a significant contribution to the genre of equestrian art. His works are characterized by meticulous attention to detail and a keen ability to capture the dynamic energy and elegance of his equine subjects. In "Dangerous With James Chapple Up," De Prades employs his skill to immortalize the synergy between horse and rider, a common theme in his oeuvre.
The Epsom Derby, inaugurated in 1780, is a cornerstone of British sporting culture, and winning this race is a hallmark of excellence in the world of thoroughbred racing. Dangerous, a bay colt, was owned by the 5th Earl of Egremont and trained by John Scott, a prominent figure in horse racing during that era. The victory in 1833 added to the prestige of both the horse and its connections, making Dangerous a celebrated name in racing history.
This painting not only serves as a historical record of a significant sporting achievement but also exemplifies the artistic style and cultural values of the time. It reflects the 19th-century fascination with horse racing and the high regard for equestrian sports, which were often associated with the aristocracy and high society. Through De Prades' work, viewers are offered a glimpse into the past, where the elegance of the sport and the prowess of its participants were immortalized on canvas.
