EDITORS COMMENTS
The Universities Boat-Race, the Cambridge Crew (b/w photo) captures a historic moment in time, showcasing the determination and camaraderie of the rowing team from Cambridge University. This photograph, taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, is a treasured piece from a private collection. The image transports us back to March 30th, 1889 when The Illustrated London News published this illustration. It depicts the intense competition between universities during one of England's most prestigious sporting events - The Boat Race. With their oars poised mid-stroke, we see members of Trinity Hall and Emmanuel College rowing with all their might. The crew members are captured in sharp detail as they navigate through Queen's Reach on the River Thames. Each face tells its own story - determination etched into their features as they push themselves to their limits for victory. This photograph not only celebrates athleticism but also serves as a testament to the artistry of early photography. Through skilled composition and lighting techniques, the English photographer has immortalized this significant moment in history. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can't help but feel inspired by these young men who embody teamwork and dedication. Their legacy lives on through this remarkable photograph.
