EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Lady Cricketers" takes us back in time to a bygone era when women's participation in sports was still a novelty. Created by Lucien Davis, this print showcases the historical significance of female cricketers and their contribution to the game. The image portrays a group of elegantly dressed ladies engaged in a spirited cricket match. Dressed in long skirts and high-collared blouses, they defy societal norms with their determination and skill on the field. The artist beautifully captures the excitement of the game as one player is caught mid-action, ready to strike the ball with her bat. This lithograph serves as an illustration for Percy Cross Standing's book "Cricket of To-Day and Yesterday" published around 1902. It offers us a glimpse into how cricket was played during that period, highlighting its popularity as both a parlour game and outdoor sport. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the progress made by women over time in breaking gender barriers within sports. It celebrates these pioneering lady cricketers who defied conventions to pursue their passion for the game. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide, this historic print from Bridgeman Images invites us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its cultural significance as it immortalizes these remarkable women who paved the way for future generations of female athletes.
