EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Polo by Moonlight in Malta, the Match between Army and Navy Teams" takes us back to a historical sporting event that unfolded under the enchanting glow of the moon. Created by John Charlton in 1899, this print captures the thrilling match between two esteemed military teams - the Army and Navy - as they engage in an intense game of polo. Set against the backdrop of picturesque Malta, known for its rich history and stunning landscapes, this artwork showcases not only a display of skillful horsemanship but also highlights the camaraderie and friendly rivalry between these armed forces. The moonlight adds an ethereal touch to the scene, casting a soft glow on both players and horses alike. As we delve into this image, we are transported to a time when sports served as a means for soldiers to unwind from their duties while fostering unity among troops. The precision and agility displayed by these athletes on horseback symbolize discipline and teamwork within military ranks. This engraving serves as both a visual delight and a testament to European heritage. It reminds us of Malta's strategic location within Europe's naval history while showcasing its contribution to various aspects such as sport and military prowess. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we have access to this remarkable piece that immortalizes an extraordinary moment where athleticism meets moonlit magic.
