EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "British Burmah, a Football Match" takes us back to the year 1880 when the sport of soccer was gaining popularity across different corners of the world. The image showcases a thrilling match taking place in British Burmah (now Myanmar), where players are seen passionately engaged in this exhilarating game. The artist behind this masterpiece is John Charles Dollman, known for his ability to capture dynamic scenes with great attention to detail. Through his skilled hand, he brings to life the intensity and excitement that surrounds this football match. Each player's body language tells a story of determination and teamwork as they chase after the ball on an open field. Published as an illustration for The Graphic on June 12th, 1880, this print provides us with a glimpse into sporting history during colonial times. It serves as a reminder that sports have always been able to transcend cultural boundaries and bring people together through shared passion. Preserved within a private collection today, this artwork from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. As we gaze upon it, we can't help but imagine ourselves transported back in time - witnessing firsthand the fervor and camaraderie that defined early football matches in distant lands like British Burmah.
