EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a delicate bisque figure of a girl footballer in her blue and white striped kit, dating back to the 1890s. The ceramic figurine, created by an English School artist from the 19th century, is now housed at the National Football Museum in Manchester, UK. The image showcases this rare piece of art with great detail, highlighting its intricate craftsmanship. The young girl stands proudly with a soccer ball at her feet, exuding confidence and determination. Her attire reflects the fashion of the era - a traditional striped jersey paired with knee-high socks. This bisque figure serves as a testament to women's involvement in football during that time period when it was still considered unconventional for females to participate in such sports. It symbolizes their resilience and passion for breaking societal norms. The photograph beautifully captures not only the artistic value of this pottery statuette but also its historical significance within women's football history. It reminds us of how far we have come since then and celebrates the progress made towards gender equality in sports. Displayed against a plain background, this image allows viewers to focus solely on the exquisite details of this sculpture – from its delicate facial features to every fold in her uniform. This print truly encapsulates both artistry and athleticism while paying homage to an important chapter in sporting history.
