This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the exuberance and camaraderie of young boys playing football on the roof of St Paul's Cathedral Choir School in London. Taken around 1901, during the turn of the 20th century, this image offers a glimpse into a bygone era. The sight of these schoolboys engaged in their favorite pastime against such an iconic backdrop is truly remarkable. Their youthful energy seems to defy gravity as they run and kick the ball with sheer joy. It speaks volumes about the resilience and resourcefulness of children who find ways to play even in unconventional spaces. Located within one of England's most prestigious educational institutions, this historic scene also highlights the importance placed on both sport and education during that time period.
