EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Sport in Albania" offers a glimpse into the early 20th-century sporting culture of this European country. Created by the American School, this print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Charles F Horne's book, "The World and its People". The image showcases an intense cockfighting scene, a popular form of entertainment during that era. Two majestic roosters engage in a fierce battle while spectators eagerly place their bets on the outcome. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as gamblers anxiously watch every move. In addition to capturing the excitement of cockfighting, this lithograph also provides insight into Albanian geography and culture. The detailed illustration depicts lush landscapes and traditional Albanian architecture in the background, giving viewers a sense of place. Amidst all the action, one can spot children observing the spectacle with curiosity. Their presence adds an element of innocence to an otherwise intense scene. With its intricate details and expertly executed lithography technique, this artwork transports us back to the 1920s when such sports were prevalent forms of entertainment across Europe. "Sport in Albania" serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece that sheds light on early 20th-century sporting traditions while offering glimpses into Albanian life at that time.
