EDITORS COMMENTS
This outdoor portrait captures the Oxford Crew, winners of the prestigious Boat Race in 1895. The team, composed of nine members, is proudly displayed in this vintage photograph. Seated from left to right, we have C. D. Burnell, C. K. Phillips, W. B. Stewart, and T. H. E. Stretch. In the middle row are W. E. Crum and M. C. Pilkington. The stroke of the crew, C. M. Pitman, is positioned at the front of the boat, while C. P. Serocold, the coxswain, stands at the stern. All team members are dressed in caps and blazers, adding to the traditional and distinguished appearance of the crew. This photograph, taken in the late 1890s during the Victorian era, showcases the spirit and camaraderie of these university rowers. The Boat Race, an annual competition between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, is a cherished tradition in the world of rowing, with this Oxford crew representing the pinnacle of success in that year. The image, from the Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, is a captivating reminder of the rich history and enduring legacy of university rowing in the 19th century.
