This charming print, created by an English School artist, captures the essence of winter recreation and camaraderie. The scene unfolds within a grand long gallery adorned with elegant architectural details. The participants are engrossed in their game, skillfully rolling wooden balls down the polished floor towards their targets. The atmosphere is filled with friendly competition and laughter as players strategize their next moves. This artwork was originally featured as an illustration in The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News on Christmas Day in 1880.
