EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the prestigious Henley Regatta, showcasing the course from a unique perspective - the bridge. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print transports us back to a time when regattas were highly anticipated social events. The image showcases a bustling scene on the River Thames in Henley-on-Thames, Berkshire. The river is teeming with elegant boats gliding through its waters, as rowers exert their strength and skill in pursuit of victory. A tugboat can be seen guiding one of these majestic vessels, adding an element of movement and dynamism to the composition. The bridge itself stands tall and proud, providing a vantage point for spectators who eagerly watch every stroke made by these determined athletes. Its architectural beauty adds charm to this already picturesque setting. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, it becomes evident that photography has always been able to capture not only images but also emotions and stories. This particular photograph was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on July 14th, 1894 - forever preserving this iconic event for generations to come. Now part of a private collection but available for public appreciation thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts, this remarkable print allows us to witness firsthand the grandeur and excitement that surrounded Henley Regatta over a century ago.
