EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Captain E G Wynyard, an all-round sportsman whose prowess extended beyond the cricket pitch. Known affectionately as "Teddy" Wynyard, he represented both Hampshire and England as a cricketer, demonstrating exceptional defensive skills that earned him great respect in the sport's history. However, Wynyard's athletic abilities did not stop at cricket. In 1894, he achieved the remarkable title of Champion of Europe in toboganning, showcasing his versatility as a sportsman. The image of Wynyard, clad in his captain's cap and holding a cricket bat, exudes an aura of determination and leadership. The year is 1905, and the historical significance of this photograph lies not only in Wynyard's impressive sports career but also in the era it represents. A time when athleticism and sportsmanship were celebrated, and the spirit of competition transcended borders. Wynyard's military title, D.S.O., stands for Distinguished Service Order, an honor bestowed upon him for his gallantry in the Second Boer War. This accolade further highlights his courage and resilience, both on and off the field. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time, witnessing the legacy of a remarkable sportsman whose impact on cricket and European sports history continues to resonate. The image serves as a testament to Wynyard's enduring spirit and the timeless appeal of sports, inspiring generations to come.
