EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1906, captures the intensity and excitement of the annual 8-oar shell race between Harvard and Cambridge universities on the Charles River in Massachusetts, USA. The crews of these historic institutions are seen in mid-race, their powerful strokes propelling the boats forward as they compete against each other. The rowers, focused and determined, are in a rhythmic sync, their oars slicing through the water with precision. The riverbank is filled with spectators, eagerly watching the race unfold, their expressions a mix of anticipation and excitement. The Charles River, a significant geographical feature in the region, serves as the perfect backdrop for this classic American scene, evoking the rich heritage of education and tradition in the United States. This photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of competition and camaraderie that has long defined these prestigious institutions.
