EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases Hugh Cecil Lowther, the 5th Earl of Lonsdale, a prominent British sportsman in 1926. The artist behind this masterpiece is Alick P F Ritchie, who skillfully captures the essence of Lowther's aristocratic charm and sporting prowess. Lowther was not only known for his aristocratic lineage but also for his immense contribution to boxing. As an avid sportsman himself, he generously donated the original Lonsdale Belts for boxing competitions. This portrait serves as a testament to his passion for sports and his dedication to its development. In this colorful caricature-like portrayal, we see Lowther donning a top hat with utmost elegance while enjoying a cigarette. His confident demeanor reflects both his status as an earl and his love for leisurely pursuits. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable; every stroke by Ritchie brings out the character and charisma of this distinguished gentleman. The vibrant colors used further enhance the overall appeal of the artwork. This collectible piece from John Player & Sons' series of cigarette cards transports us back to Britain in the 1920s—a time when aristocracy still held significant influence over society. It immortalizes Hugh Cecil Lowther as not just an earl but also as a symbol of British sporting heritage.
