EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intensity and excitement of a rugby game, frozen in time. The image showcases a young boy, fully immersed in the action as he leaps into touch, his body suspended mid-air with determination etched on his face. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life the energy and passion that radiate from this historical sporting event. The scene takes us back to a bygone era, where schoolboys engaged in spirited matches on public fields. It offers a glimpse into the rich history of rugby and its significance within schoolboy culture. This particular illustration was featured in Schoolboy Stories, published by Blackie around 1925. Rugby is not just a sport; it represents camaraderie, discipline, and physical prowess. As we observe this young player's leap into touch, we can almost feel the adrenaline coursing through his veins as he strives for victory. Beyond its athletic aspect, this image also highlights the importance of exercise and play in children's lives. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when outdoor activities were cherished moments for youngsters to bond with their peers while honing their skills. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this piece of history through their fine art collection. Through this photo print, we are transported back to an era where sportsmanship reigned supreme and childhood memories were made on muddy fields under open skies.
