Thames Grand Regatta, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Thames Grand Regatta, 1844. Racing on the River Thames at Putney in south-west London. Saturday, the third and last days matches were attended by a very numerous assemblage of persons, amongst whom were many of rank and fashion: after the two or three first heats, the towing-path was almost impassable, and the river was so covered with pleasure- boats and other craft, that the police found much difficulty in keeping the course clear. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of the Thames Grand Regatta in 1844. The racing scene unfolds on the picturesque River Thames at Putney, a charming location in southwest London. On this Saturday, which marked the third and final day of matches, an impressive gathering of people from various walks of life flocked to witness this prestigious event. The image showcases not only the thrilling boat race itself but also reveals a fascinating glimpse into Victorian society. Amongst the numerous spectators were individuals of high social standing and fashionably dressed attendees who added an air of sophistication to the occasion. As each heat unfolded, excitement filled both land and water. The popularity of this regatta was evident as pleasure boats and other craft crowded the river's surface, making it challenging for authorities to maintain a clear course. The towpath became almost impassable due to enthusiastic onlookers eager to catch a glimpse of their favorite rowing teams in action. Published in "Illustrated London News" this engraving transports us back in time to experience firsthand one of Britain's most celebrated sporting events during that era. It serves as a testament to both the skillful rowers competing for victory and their enduring legacy within British sports history. This remarkable photograph print by an unknown creator is not just an artistic masterpiece; it encapsulates an entire century's worth of tradition, competition, elegance, and camaraderie along one iconic stretch -the River Thames
