EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cricket, from British Sports and Games" takes us back to the vibrant world of 19th-century English sports. Created by an anonymous artist from the English School, this colour lithograph was published around 1880. The image showcases a quintessential cricket scene set on a picturesque village green. The players are fully immersed in the game, with one batsman skillfully wielding his bat while another prepares to bowl. The wickets stand tall and proud in the background, surrounded by eager fielders ready to catch any stray balls. The traditional cricket pavilion adds charm to the scene, providing shelter for spectators who eagerly watch every move. The vivid colours bring life to this historical moment frozen in time. From the lush green grass of the pitch to the bright whites of pads worn by players, every detail is meticulously captured. This print truly encapsulates not only a beloved sport but also a cultural tradition that has been passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' Historica Graphica Collection, we can't help but feel transported back in time – imagining ourselves amidst cheering crowds and feeling the excitement that fills the air during a thrilling cricket match on an idyllic summer's day.
