Red Roses and Racing Legends: Aristides & Oliver Lewis Equestrian Art Print
The watercolor print captures the essence of the first winners of the Kentucky Derby, Aristides and jockey Oliver Lewis. Against a background of a vibrant wall of red roses, the artwork brings to life the historic moment of their victory. Created by Aimee Griffith, the official artist of the Kentucky Derby, this print beautifully portrays the grace and strength of Aristides as he races towards the finish line, guided by the skilled jockey Oliver Lewis. The colors and details in the artwork evoke the excitement and energy of the Kentucky Derby, even though it was based on written descriptions due to the absence of colored photographs at that time.
