EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant era of rugby union in 1971. Gareth Edwards, a legendary figure in British Lions history, is captured during a pre-departure training session for the highly anticipated tour to New Zealand. The intensity on his face reflects the immense dedication and passion he possessed for the sport. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Eastbourne, Edwards stands tall as he trains rigorously, honing his skills before embarking on what would become an iconic journey. His muscular physique exudes power and strength, while his focused gaze reveals a determination that would make him one of rugby's greatest players. The image perfectly encapsulates the essence of this historic moment; it captures not only Edwards' physical prowess but also his mental fortitude. As spectators today, we can almost feel the anticipation building within him as he prepares to represent both Wales and Britain on foreign soil. Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey has masterfully frozen this fleeting moment in time through his lens. The monochrome tones add depth and nostalgia to an already remarkable scene. This print serves as a testament to Gareth Edwards' indomitable spirit and showcases why he remains an enduring icon of British Lions rugby
