Eugène Péchaubès was born in Pantin on June 24, 1890, and died in Paris on February 2, 1967. He was a painter specializing in horses and their riders. He began by depicting soldiers on their mounts, then very quickly turned his attention to the equestrian world, painting races and their winners. He became very famous, painting at most French racecourses: Auteuil, Saint-Cloud, Chantilly, Deauville, Longchamp, Maisons-Lafitte, etc., as well as English racecourses such as Ascot, Newmarket, Kempton Park...
Breeders commissioned him to paint portraits of their most famous winners, depicting them in action, crossing the finish line at a trot or full gallop. These representations are vivid, with manes and tails flying in the wind of the fast race, gleaming coats, and the extraordinary power of these beautiful animals, their muscles clearly visible, contracted in the effort they produce. The quality of his painting and his talent for depicting winners in full motion made him the preferred portraitist of breeders.
The painting bears the inscription "Vincennes Kimono Royal winner of the three-year-old criterium" at the bottom, and has just been cleaned and varnished.
