EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures the essence of Old English Sports and Games: Cricket in 1901. Created by Cecil Charles Windsor Aldin, a renowned artist of his time, this colour lithograph measures 30.5x35.6 cm and is now part of a private collection owned by The British Sporting Art Trust. The image transports us back to an era when cricket was not just a sport but a symbol of British society life. Set against the backdrop of a lush green lawn, we see elderly gentlemen dressed in their traditional whites engaging in this beloved pastime. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as the batsman takes his strike while others eagerly await their turn on the pitch. Noteworthy details include the missing stumps, suggesting that play has already begun or perhaps ended for the day. The portly figures add character to this scene, reminding us of Victorian aesthetics and fashion trends prevalent during that period. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it's impossible not to feel immersed in the summer season where sportsmanship thrived amidst camaraderie and competition. This print serves as a delightful reminder of how sports can bring people together across generations - from young boys dreaming of becoming cricketers to seasoned players relishing every moment on the field.
