EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant chromolitho print captures the exhilarating world of polo in the late 19th century. The European School artist skillfully depicts a scene filled with energy and movement, showcasing the dynamic nature of this beloved sport. In the foreground, we see a group of players on horseback, fiercely competing for control of the ball. Their colorful uniforms add to the spectacle, as they gallop across the field with determination and grace. The horses themselves are beautifully rendered, their muscles taut and their expressions focused. Surrounding the polo match are various elements that reflect the era's fascination with games and sports. A comic dancer entertains spectators nearby, while bicycles lean against a fence - a nod to emerging trends in transportation at that time. This juxtaposition highlights both traditional and modern forms of recreation coexisting harmoniously. The presence of female cyclists also suggests an early recognition of gender equality in sports participation during this period. It is evident that polo was not just reserved for men but embraced by women as well. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into an exciting moment in sporting history. Whether you're drawn to its lively atmosphere or intrigued by its cultural significance, it serves as a testament to humanity's enduring love for competitive games and our constant pursuit of physical excellence.
