EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a snapshot of "Recent Sporting Events" from the early 20th century. Taken by an English photographer, this image showcases various sports and competitions that took place during that time. In the foreground, we see a boxing competition at the Manchester Racecourse in Ireland. The fighters, both heavyweights and featherweights, are engaged in an intense battle inside the ring. Nearby, spectators gather at the County Club Enclosure of Hammersmith to witness an international association football match. Moving towards the background, we catch a glimpse of a gymnastic competition taking place in England. Footballers representing public schools showcase their skills on March 22nd in Belfast while crews row fiercely during the University Boat Race. Horseracing enthusiasts eagerly await the Grand National event as soccer players from Harrow and Putney face off on March 21st. The grandstand is filled with excited spectators including notable figures such as F. J. V Hopley and Mr. A Gorham. C. N Hooper can also be spotted among them. This photograph not only captures sporting events but also reflects the spirit of camaraderie and competition prevalent during that era.
