EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from the late 19th century showcases Wallace Ross, a renowned oarsman and sculler. Part of the "Worlds Champions" series by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, this trade card captures the essence of athleticism and determination. In this portrait, Ross exudes strength and confidence as he poses in his sportswear, ready to conquer any challenge that comes his way. The vibrant colors used in the lithotint printing technique bring life to this image, highlighting every detail of his physique. Ross's dedication to his profession is evident through his impressive rowing career. As one of Canada's finest sportsmen during that era, he became a champion in various competitions around the world. His skill on the water earned him recognition not only within his country but also internationally. The inclusion of English text adds an interesting cultural aspect to this piece. It serves as a reminder that even though Ross hailed from Canada, he was celebrated beyond national borders for his remarkable talent. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this lithograph stands as a testament to both Ross's achievements and the artistry involved in creating such prints during that time period. As we admire this historical artifact today, let us appreciate Wallace Ross's legacy as an exceptional athlete who pushed boundaries and inspired generations with his prowess on the water.
