EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Polo at Hurlingham, 11 May" takes us back to a thrilling moment in sporting history. Created by the talented artist Ralph Cleaver in 1901, this print captures the essence of a fast-paced polo match that took place on that memorable day. In this scene, we witness skilled riders changing ponies with precision as they take a brief pause from their intense competition. The players' focused expressions reveal their determination to execute an effective backstroke and secure victory for their team. The horses themselves exude power and grace as they wait patiently for their riders' return. Hurlingham Polo Club in London serves as the backdrop for this exhilarating event. Known for its prestigious tournaments and high-profile matches, Hurlingham has long been synonymous with excellence in equestrian sports. As we delve into the details of this artwork, it becomes evident that polo was not just a passing hobby but rather a full-fledged career for these dedicated athletes. Whether married or unmarried, they all shared a common passion: riding horses and engaging in one of the most beloved sports of their time. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to immerse ourselves in the world of early 20th-century polo while appreciating Cleaver's artistic talent and attention to detail. It serves as a timeless reminder of the thrill and excitement inherent in competitive sports like polo – where skill meets strategy on horseback.
