EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Croquet under Difficulties" takes us back to the 19th century, where leisure activities were enjoyed amidst breathtaking coastal landscapes. The scene depicts a group of individuals engrossed in a game of croquet on a picturesque beach. As they navigate through the challenges presented by the uneven terrain and shifting sands, their determination shines through. The artist from the English School skillfully captures both the joy and frustration that come with playing this beloved lawn game. The players' expressions reveal their competitive spirit, as they strategize each move while embracing the difficulties posed by nature itself. The crashing waves along the shoreline serve as a reminder of both the beauty and unpredictability of maritime environments. This print, part of Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, offers an intriguing glimpse into Victorian pastimes and coastal recreation. It was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on August 5th, 1871 - showcasing how even then, people sought solace in outdoor activities surrounded by stunning natural settings. Bridgeman Images presents this artwork from their Fine Art Finder collection for all to appreciate its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Let this enchanting engraving transport you to a time when croquet was played under challenging circumstances but still brought immense pleasure to those who dared to take up mallets on sandy shores.
