EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Wonderful England: Cricket" takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing a moment of joy and national pride. Created by Mary Francis Ames, this colourful lithograph is part of a private collection that celebrates the essence of English culture. The image showcases a lively cricket match, an iconic sport deeply rooted in British history and tradition. With its historical significance and humorous undertones, this artwork reflects both the spirit of the game and the era it represents. Ames' illustration was originally featured in "Wonderful England! or, The Happy Land!" written by Mrs Ernest Ames and published around 1902. This book aimed to entertain children with its comical yet educational content about various aspects of English life. Through this artwork, we glimpse into an imperialistic era when cricket served as a symbol of national identity and unity. Its vibrant colours evoke feelings of nostalgia while reminding us of the importance placed on sportsmanship during that time. As we admire this delightful piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported to a bygone era filled with laughter, camaraderie, and love for one's country. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with history and literature - capturing not only moments but also emotions that transcend time itself.
