Boating Cambridge Crew Kitching Races Stuart Swanston Thomson


EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the Cambridge Boat Crew of 1909, a team of athletic and determined young men who represented the University of Cambridge in the annual Boat Race against their rivals from the University of Oxford. The crew, made up of Stuart, Swanston, Kitching, Thomson, and William Rosher, are seen here in their traditional rowing attire, poised and ready for competition on the historic River Thames. The Boat Race is a highly anticipated and prestigious event in the British sporting calendar, with a rich history dating back to 1829. The race takes place between Putney and Mortlake, a distance of approximately 4.25 miles, and is contested by two crews, each representing one of the ancient universities. The event attracts thousands of spectators every year and is broadcast live on television. This photograph, taken in 1909, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and camaraderie of the Cambridge crew as they prepared for the big day. The team's concentration and focus are evident, as they adjust their oars and finalize their preparations before setting off on the water. The serene and picturesque setting of the river, with its graceful swans gliding alongside, adds to the idyllic scene. The members of the Cambridge crew in this photograph are identified as Stuart, Swanston, Kitching, Thomson, and William Rosher. Unfortunately, not much is known about their individual backgrounds or the outcome of the race in which they participated. However, this photograph serves as a reminder of their achievements and the important role they played in the long and storied history of the Boat Race.
