This print captures the essence of elegance and camaraderie in the ladies section of the Brighton R A polo club. The image, taken on June 27th, 1932 at Preston Park, showcases four remarkable women who are passionate about this exhilarating sport. In the foreground stands Mrs Paul Baron, exuding confidence as she holds her polo mallet with poise. Next to her is Miss D Arcy Defries, radiating gracefulness in her stylish attire that perfectly complements her love for polo. On their left stands Miss W Hilder, a vision of sophistication astride her magnificent polo pony. And completing this quartet is Miss R Baxter, whose determination shines through as she prepares to take on any challenge that comes her way. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph while allowing us to appreciate every detail - from the intricate patterns on their riding outfits to the intensity in their eyes. It transports us back to an era when fashion was just as important as skill on the pitch. Alfieri's expert composition captures not only these remarkable women but also hints at the vibrant atmosphere surrounding them - other players mounted on their ponies can be seen in the background eagerly awaiting their turn. This photograph serves as a testament to both female empowerment and sporting excellence during a pivotal period in history. It reminds us that even amidst societal expectations and limitations placed upon them, these women found solace and fulfillment within the world of polo at prestigious clubs like Brighton R
