Lunch Interval at Lords Cricket Ground, NW London (1893): A Captivating Moment in Victorian Summer Sporting History This evocative photograph captures the essence of a leisurely lunch interval during a University Cricket Match at the prestigious Lords Cricket Ground in London, during the summer month of July in 1893. The late Victorian era, with its unmistakable charm and elegance, is beautifully encapsulated in this image. The expansive, lush green cricket pitch, dotted with white balls and bats, dominates the foreground, while the iconic pavilion stands proudly in the background. The aerial view offers a unique perspective, allowing us to appreciate the grand scale of the venue and the large crowd of spectators gathered around the ground. The ladies in the photograph, dressed in their finest summer attire, take a break from the excitement of the match to enjoy their luncheon. Parasols in hand, they lounge on the grass, shielding themselves from the summer sun. The gentlemen, dressed in formal attire, engage in animated conversations, their focus momentarily diverted from the game. The scene exudes an air of tranquility and relaxation, a stark contrast to the intensity and competition of the cricket match. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to relive the charm and elegance of a bygone era. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of cricket and the rich history of Lords Cricket Ground, making it a must-have for any cricket or sports enthusiast, or anyone with an appreciation for the beauty and history of the late Victorian era.
