EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in the world of cricket during the late 19th century. Titled "Oxford Cricket, 1889" this artwork was created by renowned artist Sir Leslie Matthew Ward. The focus of the image is Hylton Punch Philipson, an Oxford University cricketer who played first-class matches. The lithograph showcases Philipson as the wicket keeper, standing tall and focused behind the stumps with his cricket pads on. His intense gaze reveals his dedication to the game and highlights his skill as a player. The vibrant colors used in this piece bring life to the scene, emphasizing both the beauty of nature and England's rich sporting heritage. The meticulous attention to detail by Vincent Brooks Day & Son adds depth and dimension to every aspect of this composition. Ward's artistic style shines through in this Victorian-era masterpiece, capturing not only Philipson's physical appearance but also his character and determination on the field. This print serves as a testament to Ward's ability to capture human emotion through portraiture. As we admire this historic photograph today, it transports us back in time to witness a significant moment in British sports history. It reminds us of how sport has always been an integral part of our culture, providing entertainment and fostering camaraderie among individuals from all walks of life.
