EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Spring Board" takes us back in time to the 16th century, showcasing a reproduction of a woodcut from A. Tuccaro's book "Exercises in Leaping and Vaulting". The image captures the essence of competition, exercise, and recreation during medieval times. In this historical scene, we witness individuals dressed in elaborate costumes and attire as they engage in various physical activities on a springboard. The gym-like setting reflects the importance placed on physical fitness even during those middle ages. These gymnasts showcase their skills through leaps, vaults, somersaults, and other awe-inspiring acrobatic maneuvers. The black and white sketch adds an air of authenticity to this piece of art while emphasizing its historical significance. Each stroke brings to life the garments worn by these athletes - intricate details that transport us into their world. As we admire this print, we are reminded of how pastimes have evolved over centuries but still hold immense value today. It serves as a reminder that fun and amusement can be found throughout history regardless of technological advancements or modern conveniences. Ken Welsh's skillful portrayal allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the rich history behind gymnastics as a form of entertainment and physical expression. This print is truly an enchanting glimpse into our ancestors' recreational pursuits while inspiring us to embrace our own active lifestyles.
