EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the momentous achievement of the 14th Marquess of Winchester, Captain Matthew Webb, as he proudly displays his hands, a testament to his historic swim across the English Channel. Born in Dublin in 1848, Webb's daring feat took place on August 24, 1875, making him the first person to successfully complete the crossing. The image, taken between 1883 and 1905, showcases Webb's confident and jubilant demeanor, as he stands before a backdrop of lush greenery. His attire, consisting of a formal coat, waistcoat, and spats, adds an air of sophistication to the scene. Webb was not only an accomplished swimmer but also a composer, conductor, teacher, and a man of many talents. His hands, still visible in his pockets, hint at his previous occupation as a seaman, adding another layer to his intriguing persona. This photograph, taken during the Victorian era, is a significant piece of historical documentation, chronicling the life and accomplishments of a remarkable man. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or biographical materials related to Captain Matthew Webb and the history of swimming and endurance sports.
