EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of an old-time cricket match between Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. The year was 1931, and on that sunny day in September, the village green at Southborough became a stage for sporting prowess and sartorial elegance. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness players adorned with top hats and side whiskers, epitomizing the fashion trends of their era. These gentlemen cricketers exude an air of sophistication as they don their whites, jackets neatly buttoned up. Their serious expressions hint at their dedication to the game they love. The crowd gathered around the field adds to the nostalgic atmosphere surrounding this image. Spectators from all walks of life have come together to witness this traditional leisure activity unfold before them. The sense of tradition is palpable; it's as if time has stood still on that very spot. Alfieri's monochrome photography perfectly captures every detail, emphasizing both style and sportmanship in equal measure. This photograph serves as a window into European history during the early 20th century - a reminder of how sports transcends generations while reflecting changing societal norms. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of Europeana photography, we can't help but feel a deep appreciation for these men who played with passion amidst rural surroundings. Alfieri's lens transports us back to those simpler times when cricket matches were not only about winning or losing but also about preserving traditions that continue
