EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the intensity and excitement of The Oxford and Cambridge Boat-Race, an iconic event that has been held on the River Thames since 1829. Created by Joseph Holland Tringham in 1898, this print showcases the thrilling finish of the race as rowers from both universities push themselves to their limits. The scene unfolds under Putney Bridge, with spectators lining the riverbanks to cheer on their respective teams. The meticulous detail in this engraving allows us to witness every stroke and strain as these skilled athletes battle for victory. The rowers' determination is palpable, their synchronized movements a testament to their rigorous training. As we gaze at this historic moment frozen in time, we are transported back to a bygone era when sportsmanship reigned supreme. This image not only celebrates athletic prowess but also highlights the camaraderie between two prestigious institutions - Oxford and Cambridge Universities. Beyond its sporting significance, this litho offers a glimpse into London's rich history. We catch sight of Thornycroft's Soap Works in Barnes, serving as a backdrop against which these fierce competitors vie for glory. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another remarkable piece of art that encapsulates both athleticism and heritage. Whether you are an avid fan of rowing or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you back to one of England's most cherished sporting traditions.
