EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the electric atmosphere of The Worlds Championship in Figure Skating, held at the prestigious National Skating Palace in 1898. The image showcases a momentous event that brought together judges, champions, and figure skating enthusiasts from all over England. In the foreground, we see the elegant skaters gracefully gliding across the glistening ice rink, their movements filled with poise and precision. Their skillful routines are being closely observed by a panel of judges who sit attentively in an elevated position. Amongst them is Prince of Wales himself, consulting with other dignitaries to determine the worthy winner of this grand competition. The Royal Box stands proudly on one side of the rink, adorned with regal decorations as distinguished guests cheer and applaud for their favorite competitors. Spectators fill every corner of this magnificent venue; their eyes fixed on each twist and turn executed flawlessly by these talented athletes. The engraving beautifully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit of camaraderie among participants as they push themselves to achieve greatness. It immortalizes figures such as Herr H Grenander, C Holt, Herr Huegel, and Herr Fuchs – names that would forever be associated with excellence in figure skating history. This lithograph serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and sporting prowess during a time when figure skating was emerging as a popular form of entertainment. Its historical significance remains intact even today through its preservation within private collections like Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder
