This print showcases James Belcher, a renowned prize-fighter from the early 19th century. The colour lithograph beautifully captures his strong and determined stance, highlighting his athletic prowess and dedication to the sport of boxing. James Belcher, also known as Jim or Jem Belcher, was born in 1781 and became one of the most celebrated pugilists of his time. His skill and technique inside the ring earned him great respect among fellow athletes and fans alike. This portrait immortalizes his legacy as a formidable boxer. The image portrays Belcher wearing traditional breeches, emphasizing the historical context in which he thrived. His muscular physique is evident, reflecting years of rigorous training and countless hours spent perfecting his craft. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of sporting art, we are transported back to an era where physical strength and endurance were highly valued attributes. It serves as a reminder of the rich history behind modern-day combat sports. This print is part of a private collection but has been made available for public appreciation through The British Sporting Art Trust. Its presence allows us to appreciate not only James Belcher's contribution to boxing but also the artistic talent that went into capturing his essence on paper.
