EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the vibrant world of sports in the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases The Dublin Metropolitan Hurling Club in all its glory. This historic image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News on March 22nd, 1884. The scene captures the essence of this exhilarating game as players engage in various actions on the field. From coaxing their opponents to rising high above for a catch, each player demonstrates their skill and determination. The goalkeeper stands tall, ready to defend against any open puck that comes his way. Amidst the fast-paced gameplay, we can spot the captain leading his team with unwavering focus. In one corner, spectators cheer from a warm vantage point while others eagerly await a fly catch or toss. Notable figures such as M. Cusack and T. Molohan grace this engraving alongside other passionate athletes who make up this esteemed club. Their dedication to hurling – a traditional Irish sport similar to hockey – shines through every stroke captured by the artist's hand. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it serves as a reminder of how sports have always brought people together across generations and cultures. It immortalizes not only an important moment in sporting history but also
