EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Arkle and companion donkey - Nellie", we are transported back to the summer of 1967 at Bryanstown Farm. The image captures a heartwarming scene inside a rustic barn, where Arkle, the legendary racehorse, is seen convalescing alongside his faithful companion donkey named Nellie. The bond between these two animals is undeniable as they find solace in each other's company during their recovery. It is evident that friendship knows no bounds, transcending even the boundaries of species. Their presence in the barn exudes a sense of tranquility and resilience. Notably, Arkle's health progress is closely monitored by a veterinarian who conducts monthly X-rays on him. Adding an air of prestige to this already remarkable story, we see none other than the Duchess of Westminster herself observing these medical examinations with great interest. This photograph not only showcases the profound connection between animals but also serves as a testament to Arkle's indomitable spirit despite his injuries. As one of horseracing's greatest winners, he continues to inspire awe and admiration among enthusiasts worldwide. Preserved through time by Mirrorpix and now available through Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot from the 1960s encapsulates both beauty and resilience within its frame – reminding us all that true friendships can heal even our deepest wounds.
