The Champion
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that was published by Currier & Ives in 1883. This vibrant colour lithograph, created by Ernest Kemble, depicts the intense world of pugilism during the late 19th century. The image showcases a triumphant male boxer, standing tall and exuding strength after a hard-fought victory. The defeated opponent lies sprawled on the ground, emphasizing the champion's dominance and power. With clenched fists and a muscular physique, he embodies determination and resilience. His belt proudly adorns his waist, symbolizing his status as the ultimate winner in this brutal sport. Kemble's illustration skillfully captures every detail of this sportsman's triumph. From his imposing stature to his confident expression, it is evident that he possesses both physical prowess and mental fortitude. Notably towering over others depicted in the scene, this giant of a man commands attention with his presence alone. His attire reflects the fashion of the era - sturdy clothes designed to withstand rigorous combat. "The Champion" serves as an enduring testament to human strength and perseverance in face-to-face combat. It immortalizes an important chapter in sporting history while highlighting themes of victory and defeat that resonate even today. This remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images offers viewers a glimpse into an era when boxing was at its peak popularity – capturing both its raw brutality and undeniable allure through Kemble's masterful technique.
