The Universities Boat-Race, the Cambridge Crew
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the 19th century and immerses us in the world of rowing at Cambridge University. This historical print, part of a private collection, captures the essence of this prestigious sporting event. The image showcases a group of determined young men, their faces filled with concentration and anticipation as they prepare for an intense race. The stroke rower sets the rhythm for his teammates, who follow suit with synchronized precision. Each member of the crew plays a crucial role in propelling their sleek boat forward on the water. Cambridge University's pride shines through as we see them proudly donning their university colors while representing their respective colleges - Caius, Trinity, Clare, Jesus - forming a united front against their rivals from Oxford. The artist skillfully portrays not only the physical strength required for such an endeavor but also highlights each individual's unique character and determination. The coxswain can be seen guiding his team with unwavering focus from his position at the helm. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News in April 1876 when it was first published. It serves as both a testament to tradition and an inspiration for future generations of rowers who continue to compete fiercely in one of Britain's most celebrated sporting events – The Universities Boat Race.
