Celebrating the Glamourous side of Racing

To many racegoers and polo enthusiasts, the thrill of the sport lies in the adrenaline rush of a placed bet or the awe of watching a 10-goaler command the ball at breakneck speed. But for just as many, the true allure is found beyond the pitch — in the elegance, the pageantry, and the unmistakable sense of occasion. The racecourse or polo field, especially in summer, becomes the ultimate stage for fashion, people-watching, and social splendour — a celebration of style as much as sport.

Rob Hefferan, renowned for his hyper-realistic portraits of celebrities, has turned his attention to this glamorous side of equestrian culture. In a fresh and vibrant departure, he has created a new series of impressionist oil paintings capturing the chic, spirited atmosphere of race days and polo matches.

Each piece is a unique original, offering collectors the chance to own a work by Hefferan at a fraction of the price of his celebrity commissions.
