EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-003899-0017" we are transported back in time to the vibrant city of Kobe, Japan around 1890. The image beautifully captures a momentous occasion for a cricket team that has gathered together for a portrait. The composition showcases the unity and camaraderie among these young men, who proudly display their passion for sports. Dressed in traditional cricket attire, they exude an air of confidence and determination as they pose with their equipment - bats held firmly in hand and balls resting at their feet. What truly stands out about this photograph is the impeccable attention to detail when it comes to fashion and clothing. Each player's outfit reflects the style prevalent during that era, with tailored trousers, collared shirts adorned with intricate patterns, and caps adding a touch of elegance to their appearance. It is fascinating how even within the realm of sports, fashion played such an important role. Hiramura M. , the talented photographer behind this masterpiece from Alinari, skillfully captures not only the physical attributes but also manages to convey each individual's unique personality through his lens. Their expressions range from stoic determination to subtle smiles - evidence of both anticipation and pride. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of how sport can bring people together across cultures and generations. It immortalizes a group united by their love for cricket while simultaneously offering us glimpses into historical clothing trends and male fashion choices prevalent during that period. As we admire this remarkable piece captured over a century ago by Hiramura M. , we cannot help but feel connected to these young athletes who left an indelible mark on history through their shared passion for sportsmanship.
