Crush At Henley - A Chaotic Spectacle of Regatta Departure
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the chaotic scene at the end of the prestigious Henley Royal Regatta in July 1893. As the day's exhilarating rowing races came to a close, spectators crammed into their boats, creating a frenzy of oars, canoes, and punts on the River Thames in Henley-on-Thames. The image showcases a large group of men and women dressed in fashionable attire, representing high society at its finest. The atmosphere is electric as they scramble to leave before darkness falls upon them. The sheer number of people creates an overwhelming sense of crowdedness and confusion. Every inch of available space is occupied by these eager spectators desperately trying to navigate through this sea of chaos. Their determined expressions reveal their desire to make a swift exit from this grand event. Published originally in Illustrated London News on July 8th, 1893, this historic photograph immortalizes not only the regatta itself but also provides us with a glimpse into late Victorian fashion and social customs. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back to that summer day when Henley was abuzz with excitement. This print serves as a testament to the enduring allure and timeless appeal of one of England's most celebrated sporting events – forever etched within our collective memory.
