Two Victorian boys in rugby football kit talking on a bench
Two 19th century boys wearing rugby football kit sitting on a bench with the ball at their feet. One of them appears to be consoling the other, with his arm around his team mates shoulders - perhaps he has had a bad game and needs encouragement. From " Little Folks - A Magazine for the Young" published in 1894 by Cassell & Company Ltd. London, Paris and Melbourne

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to the 19th century, where two Victorian boys donning their rugby football kit sit on a weathered bench. The atmosphere is palpable as they rest after what seems to have been a challenging game. One of the boys leans in towards his teammate, offering solace and support with a comforting arm draped around his shoulders. The image captures a moment of vulnerability and camaraderie amidst the backdrop of a sports field. It speaks volumes about the power of friendship and empathy even in competitive environments. Perhaps one boy had experienced disappointment or frustration during the match, prompting his companion's compassionate gesture. Published in "Little Folks - A Magazine for the Young" by Cassell & Company Ltd. , London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1894, this photograph holds historical significance as it showcases not only early rugby attire but also provides insight into the values instilled within young athletes during that era. As we gaze upon these two young souls frozen in time, we can't help but be reminded that sport is not just about winning or losing; it is about forging connections and supporting one another through both triumphs and tribulations. This poignant image serves as an enduring reminder that compassion knows no boundaries – even across centuries – leaving us inspired to extend our own arms of comfort to those who may need it most.
