Newport, a renowned summer resort town, was known for its grand social events and horse shows during the early 20th century. The image showcases an elegant gathering of well-dressed men and women, all with expressions of delight and engagement as they take in the horse show. The women's fashion of the time is on full display, with some wearing voluminous skirts, high collars, and intricate hats, while others opt for simpler, yet still stylish, outfits. The men, dressed in suits and hats, appear equally fashionable and sophisticated. The setting, with its lush greenery and grandstands, adds to the overall sense of elegance and refinement. The Social and Newport Show was an important social event in Newport's calendar, attracting the wealthy and influential from all over the country. Horses were a symbol of status and wealth, and the horse shows were an opportunity for people to display their horses and their fashion sense.
