"Epsom, Derby Sweepstakes" is a notable painting by John Nost Sartorius, an esteemed English painter renowned for his equestrian and sporting art. Sartorius, who lived from 1759 to 1828, hailed from a family of artists and is celebrated for his detailed and dynamic representations of horses and racing scenes. This particular work captures the essence of the Epsom Derby, one of the most prestigious horse racing events in the United Kingdom, which has been held annually since 1780 at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey.

The painting vividly portrays the excitement and grandeur of the Derby, a race that has long been a highlight of the British social and sporting calendar. Sartorius's keen eye for detail and his ability to convey movement and energy are evident in the way he depicts the horses and jockeys in mid-race, their forms taut with exertion and speed. The background of the painting often includes the throngs of spectators, elegantly dressed and animated, capturing the social atmosphere that accompanies the event.

Sartorius's work is distinguished by his meticulous attention to the anatomy and musculature of the horses, as well as his skillful use of color and composition to create a sense of immediacy and drama. "Epsom, Derby Sweepstakes" not only serves as a historical record of the early days of the Derby but also as a testament to Sartorius's talent and his contribution to the genre of sporting art.

The painting is a valuable piece for both art historians and enthusiasts of equestrian sports, offering insights into the cultural and social significance of horse racing in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Through his work, Sartorius has immortalized a quintessentially British tradition, providing a window into the past and preserving the legacy of the Epsom Derby for future generations.
