"Flora Temple" is a chromolithograph print by Currier and Ives, famed American printmakers, depicting a famous racehorse of the 19th century. The image shows Flora Temple in full stride, pulling a sulky, or racing cart, with her driver. The print was likely created to celebrate Flora Temple's racing prowess and popularity, which was a major part of American culture in the mid-19th century. The image is a good example of the printmaking style used by Currier and Ives, which was known for its bold colors and detailed realism.
