EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print depicts the 7th Baron Hawke, Martin Bladen Hawke (1860-1938), in the midst of his batting stride during a cricket match, circa 1912. Hawke, an English aristocrat and accomplished cricketer, was a prominent figure in the sport during the British Empire's golden age of cricket. The image exudes an air of elegance and grace, as Hawke focuses intently on the wicket before him, his body poised for the perfect shot. Born on March 2, 1860, Hawke was not only a skilled cricketer but also a decorated military officer, serving in the Grenadier Guards. His cricket career began in earnest in the late 1880s, and he went on to represent Hampshire and the Marylebone Cricket Club in various first-class matches. Hawke's impressive performances earned him a place in the England team for the tour of South Africa in 1892-93. Despite his aristocratic background, Hawke was known for his humility and sportsmanship both on and off the field. His dedication to the game and his gentlemanly demeanor endeared him to fans and fellow cricketers alike. The print captures a moment in time when the British Empire's love for cricket was at its zenith, and the game was a source of pride and unity for the people. Martin Bladen Hawke passed away on February 2, 1938, leaving behind a rich legacy in both the world of cricket and the British aristocracy. This evocative image serves as a testament to his enduring impact on the sport and the era in which he played.
