EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a moment of hardship and bullying in the world of school cricket during the late 1870s. The photograph, titled "Cricket under Difficulties," depicts a large group of young cricketers in their school uniforms, surrounding a hapless fellow student. The victim, with a look of fear and distress on his face, is being manhandled by his classmates as they wrap a cricket net around him. The net, which was likely used to protect the wicket or catch balls during the game, has been turned into a weapon, inflicting both physical and emotional pain. The historical context of this photograph is significant, as it highlights the prevalence of bullying and rough play in school sports during this era. Cricket was a popular sport in England during the late 19th century, and school cricket matches were a regular part of the curriculum. However, the competitive nature of the game often led to rough play and even violence, particularly among younger students. Despite the unfortunate scene depicted in the photograph, it is also a reminder of the rich history and traditions of cricket. The image captures the essence of the game, with its green fields, white uniforms, and the intense focus of the players. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the challenges that young students faced in their pursuit of athletic excellence. The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a poignant reminder of the complexities of human nature and the enduring power of sports to bring people together, even in the face of adversity.
