  • Notes: An original full page from the August 3rd, 1850 edition of The Illustrated London News; showing two plates of detailed wood engravings. The first, across the top of the page, consists of three simpler wood engravings of the "Cups" or pieces of prize plate bestowed onto the various winners of the Goodwood Races which are noted as being "... of great excellent in their class of art". From left to right, these are: 'The Goodwood Cup' manufactured by Mr Hancock after a design by the eminent French artist M. Fr(e)ret, 'The Chesterfield Cup' designed by Sir George Hayter and 'The Stewards' Cup' designed and modelled by Alfred Brown. This artwork is complemented by the full relating text article above it, which describes in detail the cups' conceptualisation and design, manufacture, history and full descriptions. The second and larger plate, across the bottom of the page is entitled: 'Goodwood Races, 1850', this engraving shows a panoramic view of the Goodwood Races in full swing including the crowds and spectators, the horses and riders mid-race, the side of Goodwood house and the racecourse stretching off into the distance in front of the rolling South Downs and scenic landscape. This artwork is also complimented by its relating text article (partial, unfinished). These artworks were printed on page 97 of the popular publication, The ILN, in 1850. These are fine antique examples of original wood engravings that are 165 years old.
