This print captures a moment in history, showcasing the Soule game, an ancestor of football, played in Basse Normandy, France. The engraving is featured in "PATRIQUE DE LA FRANCE IN 6 VOLUES BY LUCIEN HUARD" a renowned work from the end of the 19th century by French School. In this traditional scene, we witness the leisurely yet intense nature of the Soule game. The French population gathers in a small village to participate in this casual sporting event that has deep roots within their culture.

The image exudes a sense of tradition and community as players engage with enthusiasm while spectators cheer them on. The simplicity of the setting adds to its charm, transporting us back to a time when leisure activities were enjoyed amidst picturesque landscapes like those found in Lower Normandy.
