EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to an enchanting archery match of 1828, as depicted in this image from the Mary Evans Picture Library. The scene transports us to a bygone era, where competitors, dressed in the traditional attire of Robin Hood and his Merry Men, gather to showcase their skills with the longbow. The archery match, held in a serene woodland setting, is filled with an air of excitement and camaraderie. The competitors, all dressed in hooded garments, donning green tunics and tights, and adorned with quivers full of arrows, embody the legendary figures of Robin Hood and his band of loyal followers. The atmosphere is one of joviality and friendly competition, as the archers focus intently on their targets, their faces a mix of determination and concentration. The sun filters through the trees, casting dappled light on the scene, adding to the idyllic and picturesque setting. Archery was a popular pastime in the 19th century, and this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the sport. The tradition of dressing up as Robin Hood and his Merry Men for archery matches was a common practice during this time, and this photograph captures the essence of that tradition beautifully. This image is not only a testament to the rich history of archery but also a reminder of the enduring appeal of the legend of Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men. It is a charming and evocative snapshot of a bygone era, and a must-see for anyone with an interest in history, sport, or folklore.
