EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense atmosphere of a historic boxing match that took place on May 31,1810. The bout, fought for an impressive sum of 200 guineas, pitted two formidable fighters against each other: Dutch Sam and Medley. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Moulsey Hurst near Hampton in Britain, this event drew crowds eager to witness the clash between these renowned boxers. In this hand-colored etching by Thomas Rowlandson, we are transported back to the vibrant world of early 19th-century British sport. The image showcases the raw power and skill displayed by both competitors as they engage in a fierce battle within the squared ring. Their muscular frames and determined expressions reveal their dedication to their craft. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the carefully rendered spectators surrounding the ring to the vivid colors that bring life to this historical moment. This artwork serves as a testament not only to Rowlandson's artistic talent but also to his ability to capture significant moments in sporting history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we can't help but be drawn into its narrative. It reminds us of a time when boxing was more than just a sport; it was an embodiment of strength, courage, and determination.
