The image showcases an artwork by the English School from the 18th century, depicting this significant sporting event that took place at Lord Cathcart's magnificent Shaw-Park estate in Clackmannanshire. Two teams of esteemed gentlemen players gathered on September 3rd to compete for a staggering sum of 1000 guineas per side. The atmosphere must have been electric as these aristocratic individuals showcased their skills and passion for the game amidst lush green fields. The composition beautifully portrays the essence of Georgian-era leisure and recreation, with players engaged in a thrilling innings. Every run scored is etched into history through this remarkable artwork, symbolizing not only a sporting triumph but also an important milestone for Scottish culture.
