EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of young English basketball players in Great Britain during the 1870s or 1880s. The image, taken by photographers Gills and Saunders, is a rare glimpse into the early days of basketball in England. The portrait showcases the players posing confidently with their basketball, exuding a sense of camaraderie and determination. Their attire reflects the fashion of the time, with each player dressed in traditional Victorian clothing that adds to the historical charm of the photograph. In the background, we see elements of architecture and decoration typical of that era, including furniture and building elements that provide context for the scene. The composition is carefully arranged to highlight both the individuality of each player and their collective passion for sports. As we gaze at this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of sports and games as a means of bringing people together. The young athletes captured in this image may have long since passed away, but their spirit lives on through this beautifully preserved portrait. Thanks to Bridgeman Images and Fine Art Finder for making it possible for us to admire this piece from Alinari Archives in Florence. It serves as a reminder not only of our shared sporting heritage but also as a tribute to these pioneering English basketball players who paved the way for future generations.
