Photo Finish

The seventh annual Photo Finish onsite exhibit will be display in the von Stade Gallery from November 1 to December 28, 2025

The online exhibition includes all photographs that will be on display in the von Stade Gallery, as well as additional selections.

This exhibition features selected amateur and professional photographs that document the thoroughbred racing experience, from a serene moment on the farm to the exhilaration at the finish of a race. Each image captures an element of the strength, beauty, and emotion of the sport.
