EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-003899-0019" captured by the talented Hiramura, we are transported back in time to witness a lively cricket match taking place in Kobe, Japan around 1890. The image showcases a picturesque field where the game unfolds amidst the breathtaking backdrop of farmland countryside. The scene is filled with an air of excitement as male players, dressed impeccably in their fashionable cricket attire, engage in this beloved sport. Their clothing reflects the fashion and style prevalent during that era, adding an extra layer of historical significance to the photograph. As our eyes wander through the frame, we notice a charming house nestled nearby. Its architectural beauty stands out against the serene landscape, providing shelter and perhaps serving as a gathering point for spectators who have come to enjoy this thrilling match. Hiramura's expert composition captures not only the action on the field but also offers us a glimpse into Japanese culture at that time. The group portrait reveals camaraderie among teammates and highlights their dedication to sportsmanship. This remarkable print transports us back over a century ago when cricket was gaining popularity even outside its traditional strongholds. It serves as both a testament to human passion for sports and an exquisite representation of how architecture and nature can harmoniously coexist. With every detail meticulously preserved within this image, it allows us to appreciate not only Hiramura's artistic vision but also provides valuable insights into history itself. This timeless piece invites us to reflect upon our shared heritage while celebrating moments frozen forever through photography's lens.
