Oh! They will never do for cricket
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful and whimsical colour lithograph captured by Charles Edmund Brock. This print, now part of a private collection, takes us back to the idyllic English countryside during the early 20th century. In this charming scene, we find ourselves in a quaint village where cricket enthusiasts have gathered on a sunny day. The image showcases an array of characters dressed in their eccentric costumes, ready to engage in the beloved sport of cricket. The vibrant colours bring life to each individual's unique attire, adding to the overall charm of the composition. The focus falls upon two key figures: the batsman and the wicket-keeper. Dressed in traditional white uniforms with pads and gloves, they stand out against their fellow players. With bat held high and eyes fixed on his opponent, the batsman exudes determination and skill while preparing for his turn at striking that elusive ball. Meanwhile, behind him stands the wicket-keeper - ever watchful and agile - adorned with protective gear as he awaits any opportunity to catch or stump out an opposing player. Their presence adds depth and excitement to this picturesque village pitch. This artwork transports us into a simpler time when community spirit thrived through shared passions like cricket. It invites us to appreciate not only the game itself but also its ability to unite people from all walks of life within a close-knit village setting.
