A Ball or a Strike - Which?
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating wood engraving that takes us back to the world of baseball in 1888. The print, created by Thure de Thulstrup and reproduced as an American wood engraving, beautifully captures the essence of this beloved sport. In this scene, we find ourselves amidst a thrilling game taking place in an outdoor stadium. The late afternoon sun casts its warm glow on the field as players don their traditional uniforms and eagerly await their turn at bat or to take up position on the field. A skilled batter stands confidently with his wooden bat, ready to swing with precision. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable – from the umpire closely observing each pitch to spectators cheering enthusiastically from behind a white picket fence. We can almost feel the excitement emanating from every corner of this bustling stadium. Notably, one player catches our eye – a catcher wearing protective gear including a chest protector and cap adorned with his team's logo. His moustache adds character to his determined expression as he prepares for any incoming pitches. This wood engraving serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece, reminding us of America's deep-rooted love for baseball. It immortalizes not only the skillful athletes who played but also showcases how sports have always been able to bring people together across generations.
