Good Wood Madam - A Moment of Triumph on the Bowling Green
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph from July 8th, 1939, we witness a delightful scene in an English park. The image captures the essence of a lawn bowling match as a female bowler raises her hands in sheer satisfaction at a successful throw. Her face is not visible, but her body language exudes joy and accomplishment. The landscape stretches out behind her, providing a picturesque backdrop for this momentous occasion. Sporting traditional attire for the sport, she stands with confidence and poise while holding her equipment - the ball that has just made its mark on the green. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie found in such matches. It showcases both skill and strategy involved in lawn bowling while also capturing an element of humor through its comic undertones. As we observe this archival print from Picture Post's collection, we are transported back to an era where simple pleasures like watching or participating in sporting events brought immense delight. The surprise captured within this frame reminds us that even amidst challenging times (the photo was taken during 1930-1939), moments of triumph can be found. With its timeless appeal and evocative composition, "Good Wood Madam" serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate desire for achievement. This remarkable piece is sure to bring charm and nostalgia into any space it graces.
