EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "How they played cricket when Queen Victoria was young" takes us back to the early 19th century and offers a glimpse into the world of Victorian-era sports. The image showcases a group of players engaged in a lively game of cricket on what appears to be a sunny day. The scene is set in picturesque grounds, possibly in Kent or Brighton, as suggested by the tall hats worn by some players. Each participant is dressed impeccably in their white uniforms, reflecting the formality and etiquette associated with this beloved sport during that time. The composition highlights various positions within the game: bowlers poised for action, fielders ready to catch any stray balls, and batsmen prepared to strike with precision. It's evident that cricket was more than just a recreational activity; it required skillful technique and strategic thinking. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, we can almost feel the excitement emanating from each player. Whether they were members of Sussex Cricket Club or simply enthusiasts enjoying a parlour game on Brighton Beach or New Brighton remains unknown. Nevertheless, this engraving beautifully captures both the spirit of camaraderie among players and the joy derived from playing cricket during Queen Victoria's youth. Thanks to Fine Art Finder and Bridgeman Images for preserving this remarkable piece of history—a testament to how sports have evolved over centuries while still retaining their timeless appeal.
