EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts an intense moment in the historic boxing match between Spanish prizefighter, Pedro Carrasco Mendoza, and English champion, Thomas Humphries, which took place in London in 1788. The image captures the raw energy and determination of the two athletes as they engage in a fierce battle inside the roped square, surrounded by an eager and engaged audience. Mendoza, a renowned fighter from Spain, had traveled to England to challenge the best boxers of the time, seeking to establish his dominance in the sport. Humphries, a formidable opponent, was determined to defend his title and prove himself the superior boxer. The boxers wear no protective gear, and their bodies are bare except for loose-fitting trousers and shoes. Their faces are etched with the marks of previous battles, a testament to their dedication and endurance. The crowd, composed of men and women from all walks of life, watches intently, some cheering for their favorite fighter, others expressing their awe and admiration for the athletes' skill and bravery. The boxing ring, a simple wooden structure, serves as the stage for this dramatic confrontation. The referee, dressed in a red coat, stands by, ready to ensure a fair and safe match. The scene is one of raw emotion, physical strength, and unyielding determination, a testament to the enduring appeal of the sport of boxing and the unbreakable spirit of its participants.
