EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intensity and passion of the annual England versus France rugby union match, held at Twickenham on 28th January 1911. Despite the final score of 37-0 in favor of England, the French team displayed unyielding determination and courage on the field. The game was a testament to the long-standing sports rivalry between these two rugby powerhouses, a tradition that began as part of the Entente Cordiale, a treaty of friendship between France and England signed in 1904. The players can be seen locked in a fierce battle for possession of the ball, with both teams demonstrating impressive agility and skill. The fast-paced nature of the game is evident in the blurred motion of the players, as they maneuver around their opponents in a bid to score points. The crowd, packed tightly into the stands, watches on with bated breath, their faces reflecting the excitement and tension of the moment. The annual England versus France rugby union match was a highly anticipated event in the rugby calendar, representing not only a clash of athletic prowess but also a symbol of the enduring bond between these two nations. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and tradition of rugby union, and the unwavering spirit of competition that continues to drive players and fans alike.
