About the Item
Signed and inscribed.
The Prix de Diane, also known as the French Oaks, is a celebrated flat race held each June at Chantilly. Reserved for 3-year-old fillies, the race spans 2,100 meters and was first run in 1843. Named in honor of the Roman goddess Diana, its early editions were exclusive to French-bred horses. Over time, the race shifted locations—staged in Versailles in 1848 and suspended entirely during World War I. After the war, it briefly moved to Longchamp before returning to its traditional home in Chantilly in 1921, with another relocation back to Longchamp in 1936.
The Grand Prix de Paris, also portrayed, is another historic flat race inaugurated in 1863. Unlike the Prix de Diane, it is open to 3-year-old colts and fillies. Initially limited to French-bred Thoroughbreds, the race was intended to showcase the finest horses bred in the country. Like its counterpart, the Grand Prix de Paris was interrupted during World War I, with no races held from 1915 to 1918. It remains a highlight of the summer racing calendar in France.
Together, these paintings capture not just the pageantry and tradition of French horse racing but also the enduring legacy of these iconic events.
