EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative silhouette captures the essence of a bygone era, as the sun sets over the hallowed grounds of Lord's Cricket Ground in 1907. The silhouetted figures of Edwardian men and women, dressed in their finest attire, are deeply engrossed in the cricket match between Eton and Harrow schools. The crisp lines and intricate details of their clothing and hats are beautifully rendered, providing a glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the time. The scene exudes an air of elegance and refinement, with the ladies in their long, flowing skirts and high-necked blouses, and the gentlemen in their tailored suits and bowler hats. The children, too, are dressed in their Sunday best, adding to the sense of occasion. The cricket pitch, bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, is the focal point of the image, with the players in sharp contrast against the darkening sky. The crowd's rapt attention is evident, as they lean forward in their seats, fully absorbed in the game. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when cricket was a cherished pastime and social event. The silhouetted figures, frozen in time, serve as a reminder of the rich history and tradition of this beloved sport.
