EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by renowned British satirist H.M. Bateman, titled "Pictured at Putney by our artist with the blues. The Light Blues and the Dark: Wild caricatures of the Eights for the University Boat-Race," dates back to 1912. The image showcases the humorous and whimsical take of Bateman on the highly anticipated and tradition-steeped University Boat Race between the Oxford and Cambridge crews. The Oxford and Cambridge University Boat Race is an annual rowing competition held on the River Thames in London. The event, which began in 1829, is a highly prestigious and much-anticipated occasion, with the winning crew earning the title of 'The Boat Race Champions.' Bateman's print offers a lighthearted and exaggerated portrayal of the rowers from both universities. The Oxford crew, represented by the 'Light Blues,' is depicted with a more refined and sophisticated appearance, while the Cambridge crew, or 'Dark Blues,' is shown in a more boisterous and unruly manner. The caricatures capture the essence of the friendly rivalry between the two institutions, adding a touch of humor and charm to the historic event. The print's title, "Pictured at Putney," refers to Putney, a suburb in southwest London, which serves as the starting point for the race. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating look at the traditions and camaraderie that surround the University Boat Race. H.M. Bateman, a celebrated British cartoonist, was known for his humorous and satirical works. His unique style and ability to capture the essence of human behavior made him a popular figure in the world of British satire. This print, with its lively and whimsical depiction of the University Boat Race, is a testament to Bateman's talent and his enduring influence on the world of cartooning.
