EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in the history of international hockey. Taken on 12th March 1921 at Beckenham, England, this image showcases an intense match between England and Ireland. As the players stand tall with their sticks ready for action, one cannot help but feel the electric atmosphere that surrounds them. However, what truly makes this photograph extraordinary is the presence of royalty. King George V himself graces this sporting event with his regal presence, extending his hand to shake those of the dedicated athletes before him. This gesture symbolizes not only a mark of respect from the monarch towards these skilled individuals but also highlights how hockey transcends boundaries and unites people from all walks of life. Alfieri's monochrome photography style adds depth and timelessness to this remarkable snapshot from Europeana's collection. The stark contrast between light and shadow enhances every detail - from each player's determined expression to the texture on their jerseys. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded of the power sports possess in bringing nations together through friendly competition. It serves as a testament to both athletic prowess and camaraderie among countries during an era when international relations were still recovering from World War I
