The Demon Bowler - A Captivating Caricature of Cricket's Rake
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of "The Demon Bowler" from a bygone era, originally published in Vanity Fair on the 13th of July, 1878. Created by Leslie Matthew Ward, also known as Spy, this colour lithograph showcases his exceptional talent for caricature. In this artwork, we are introduced to a tall and thin cricketer who exudes an air of rakish charm. Dressed in a stylish blazer and sporting a dashing cap with a distinctive tie, he epitomizes the quintessential sportsman of his time. With an animated profile that seems ready to leap off the page, The Demon Bowler commands attention. Ward's skillful use of color lithography brings life to every detail - from the intricate patterns on his attire to the mischievous twinkle in his eye. Through this playful portrayal, we gain insight into both the character and prowess of this enigmatic figure. As one gazes upon The Demon Bowler's countenance, it becomes evident that cricket was not merely a game for him; it was an art form. This image encapsulates not only his athletic abilities but also hints at his strategic mastery on the field. Now preserved within a private collection and made available through Fine Art Finder via Bridgeman Images, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into cricket history while showcasing Ward's artistic brilliance. It serves as a testament
