EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the intense rivalry between Oxford and Cambridge Universities during their renowned Boat Race. Created by William Barnes Wollen in 1892, this print showcases the historic event that takes place on the River Thames at Mortlake. The scene depicts the thrilling climax of the race, with both teams pushing themselves to their limits as they approach the finish line. The rowers' determination is palpable, evident in their strained expressions and synchronized movements. The atmosphere is charged with excitement as spectators eagerly watch from the riverbanks. Intriguingly, a pistol can be seen firing into the air, marking a pivotal moment in this prestigious sporting event. This detail adds an element of drama to an already exhilarating scene. Wollen's masterful technique brings every aspect of this iconic race to life - from capturing each ripple on the water's surface to highlighting every muscle strain on these skilled athletes' bodies. As we gaze upon this historical print today, it serves as a reminder of not only the fierce competition between two esteemed universities but also of our enduring fascination with sportsmanship and human achievement.
