EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Close End, c1903" takes us back to the early 20th century, capturing a moment of winter sport and camaraderie. The image showcases a frozen landscape where men are engaged in an intense game of curling on an ice rink. Despite the biting cold, their faces radiate with enthusiasm and enjoyment. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless charm to this scene from "The Sports of the World" a publication by F. G. Aflalo. It beautifully portrays the concept of community and friendly rivalry as these men compete against each other in this popular winter pastime. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the crispness of the wintry air and hear the satisfying sound of stones gliding across ice. The composition captures both the physicality and strategy involved in curling, highlighting its enduring appeal even over a century later. This print serves as a reminder that sports have always been an integral part of human culture, bringing people together regardless of time or place. It is through such moments that bonds are formed, memories are made, and traditions are passed down from one generation to another. With its historical significance and artistic merit, this print by A Brown & Co offers us not only visual pleasure but also insight into our shared sporting heritage.
