EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant moment frozen in time. This colour lithograph by William Small takes us back to the year 1901 when it was first published in The Graphic magazine. The image depicts an intense cockfighting match, showcasing a popular sport that once enthralled audiences. The scene is filled with energy and anticipation as two roosters confront each other in a fierce battle for dominance. Their feathers are ruffled, their beaks open wide, ready to clash against one another. Spectators gather around the ring, eagerly watching every move with bated breath. This artwork not only showcases the popularity of sports during the 19th century but also highlights the raw nature of human conflict and competition. It reminds us of our primal instincts and how they have shaped our history. Small's attention to detail is evident in this print; he masterfully captures every feather and expression on both birds' faces. The use of vivid colours adds depth and intensity to the scene, making it come alive before our eyes. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are transported back to a time where such spectacles were celebrated forms of entertainment. "In the early days of our Century, Popular Sport in 1800" serves as a reminder of how far we have come while honoring traditions that have shaped our past.
