EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the early 20th century Queens College Cambridge rowing team in action on the River Cam. The team members, clad in their distinctive rowing uniforms, are intently focused on their training, with the cox providing directions from the stern. The serene water reflects the beauty of the surrounding landscape, dotted with willow trees and the picturesque Searles Boathouse and Winter Boat Builders in the background. Established in 1448, Queens' College is one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions in the University of Cambridge. The college's rich history is further evidenced by its prominent role in the world of rowing. The team's dedication to the sport can be seen in their unwavering commitment to training on the River Cam, even in the colder months when the Winter Boat Builders were hard at work. The Edwardian era, during which this photograph was taken, was a time of great innovation and progress in the world of rowing. The introduction of new technologies, such as the sliding seat and the sculling oar, revolutionized the sport and allowed teams like Queens College to compete at the highest levels. The photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Queens College's rowing team and the importance of sport and higher education in shaping the lives of young men during this period. The tranquil scene on the River Cam, with its timeless beauty and the determination of the team, continues to inspire and captivate viewers to this day.
