Step back in time to June 5th, 1880, where a historic polo match took place at the Ranelagh Club under the glow of electric lights. The game didn't begin until ten o'clock in the evening, creating a scene that was described as strange and weird by the ILN. As the light was thrown upon the players, it lent an otherworldly appearance to the match.
This unique moment captured in history showcases not only the import of this particular game but also highlights how technology has played a role in sporting events throughout time. The combination of tradition and innovation is evident in this photo print, as players on horseback compete under artificial light.
