EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Back page of The Referee, no. 35.15th April 1878" takes us back in time to the early days of football. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print is a fascinating glimpse into the world of sports journalism. The image showcases the final page of The Referee, a popular weekly sports paper from that era. Dated April 15th, 1878, it features a detailed match report on the game between Wanderers and Vale of Leven played at Kennington Oval just two days prior. This historic encounter must have been quite significant for football enthusiasts during that time. The intricate engravings and text on this litho capture the essence of Victorian-era football with its simplistic yet passionate depiction. It transports us to a time when players wore different attire and matches were played on open fields rather than modern stadiums. Preserved in the National Football Museum located in Manchester, UK, this artwork serves as a reminder of how far football has come over the years. It symbolizes not only our love for the game but also our fascination with its rich history. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection at Fine Art Finder, we are reminded that even though times change and technology advances, there will always be something magical about capturing moments from sporting events through artistry and storytelling.
