EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment on the Thames as spectators gather on barges to watch the Boat Race. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The scene depicts crowds lining the riverbank, eagerly watching as boats glide through the water. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation. The photograph was originally used as an illustration for "Wonderful London" by St John Adcock, published by Fleetway around 1930. It showcases the rich history of sports in England, specifically highlighting the prestigious University Boat Race held annually on the Thames. Intriguingly, this snapshot also offers glimpses into European relations during that time period. With Germany mentioned in its description, it suggests a connection between British and German cultures along with their shared love for boating and sporting events. Overall, this image provides a window into early 20th-century Britain's fascination with both traditional river transport and competitive sportsmanship. Its timeless appeal allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also marvel at how such scenes continue to captivate audiences today.
