EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the intensity and camaraderie of "The Universities Boat-Race, the Oxford Crew". Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a historic moment in rowing history. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on April 8,1876. In this scene, we witness the strength and determination of the Oxford Crew as they compete against their rivals. Each rower's face reflects focus and dedication while their synchronized strokes propel them forward with incredible speed. T. C Edwardes Moss leads from stroke position, guiding his teammates through each challenging wave. The composition beautifully portrays not only the physical prowess required for such a demanding sport but also highlights the unity within this team. From Worcester to Corpus Christi College, these athletes represent various prestigious institutions that come together under one banner - Oxford University. As spectators line along the riverbanks cheering fervently for their favorite crew, it becomes evident that rowing is more than just a sport; it is a symbol of tradition and excellence. This engraving serves as a timeless reminder of the passion and skill exhibited by these young men who have dedicated themselves to mastering both oarsmanship and teamwork. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of history through Fine Art Finder so that viewers can appreciate its artistic value while immersing themselves in an era where sportsmanship reigned supreme.
