EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Winners of Doggetts Coat and Badge" takes us back in time to the bustling river customs of England. Captured by J. Benjamin Stone, a renowned photographer from the late 19th century, this image showcases a group of proud rowing champions basking in their victory. The scene is set on the iconic River Thames, where boating culture thrived and competitions like Doggetts Coat and Badge were highly esteemed. The winners, adorned with their prestigious coats and badges, exude confidence as they stand tall against the backdrop of the flowing river. While English rowers dominate this snapshot, it's worth noting that one can spot a few German participants among them. This inclusion hints at an exchange between two nations with rich boating traditions - Germany being known for its strong presence in European rowing events. As we delve into this photograph's historical significance, it becomes evident that it represents more than just a celebration of athletic achievement. It symbolizes cultural connections between countries within Europe during a time when borders seemed less rigid. Preserved in private collections over generations, Sir Benjamin Stones' work continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. This particular piece offers us a glimpse into both English and German cultures while reminding us of the unifying power sports possess across borders within Europe – an enduring testament to human connection through shared passions.
