EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Curling In The 19th Century" takes us back in time to an era when this beloved sport was at its peak. From the book "Scottish Pictures Drawn With Pen And Pencil" by Samuel G. Green, published in 1886, this image beautifully captures the essence of curling during that period. The scene depicts a group of enthusiastic players engaged in a thrilling game on a frozen lake or pond. Clad in traditional Scottish attire, they skillfully slide heavy granite stones across the icy surface towards their target known as the "house". The intense concentration on their faces is evident as they strategize and communicate with each other to achieve victory. This snapshot from history not only showcases the physicality and precision required for curling but also highlights its social aspect. Curling has always been more than just a game; it brings people together, fostering camaraderie and friendly competition among participants. Thanks to Ken Welsh's expertise in capturing historical moments through photography, we can now appreciate this remarkable image that encapsulates both the spirit of curling and life in the 19th century Scotland. It serves as a reminder of how sports have evolved over time while still preserving their core values and traditions.
