EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rowing, Comparison of fixed seat with sliding seat" takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a fascinating glimpse into the history of rowing. The lithograph, created by an English School artist around 1922, showcases two distinct techniques employed in this popular water sport. Intriguingly displayed side by side are rowers using both fixed seats and sliding seats. The image highlights the contrasting movements involved in each method - from the forward end swing to the recovery and ultimately reaching the finish stroke. This visual representation serves as a valuable educational tool, originally intended for inclusion in The Harmsworth Encyclopaedia. The photograph is part of a private collection but has been made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform. It captures not only the physicality and technique required in rowing but also reflects on how knowledge was disseminated during that era. As we observe this historical piece, we can't help but appreciate how far rowing has come since then. Today's athletes benefit from advancements in equipment and training methods that have undoubtedly enhanced their performance on water. However, it is important to acknowledge these roots and pay tribute to those who paved the way for modern-day rowers. This print offers a unique opportunity to delve into history while celebrating an enduring sport that continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide.
