EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the refined world of 18th-century fencing at Mr H Angelos Fencing Academy. Created by renowned artist Thomas Rowlandson in 1929, this illustration from the Apollo Volume X transports us to a time when swordplay was not only a sport but also an art form. In vivid color, we see a group of sportsmen engrossed in their practice, their foils poised for action. The men exude confidence and skill as they engage in friendly combat under the watchful eye of their instructor. Each participant is en garde, ready to demonstrate their mastery over these lethal weapons. The scene captures both the physicality and grace inherent in fencing. It serves as a testament to the dedication and discipline required to excel in this centuries-old martial art. The concept of warfare is subtly hinted at through these elegant duels, reminding us that behind every graceful movement lies an understanding of strategy and tactics. Notably featured are Henry Angelo and Joseph Bologne, two prominent figures associated with fencing during this era. Their expertise shines through as they guide aspiring fencers towards perfection within the salle's hallowed walls. Through this print collector's lens, we are transported back in time to witness an age where sword fighting was not just about survival but also about cultivating one's character and finesse on the battlefield.
