EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Rugby Union Football, 'Well Saved! Hard Lines!'" transports us back to the exhilarating world of sports in the late 19th century. Created by William Barnes Wollen, a renowned artist from that era, this print captures a moment of intense action on the rugby field. The scene depicts a dramatic instance during a Rugby Union Football match where an incredible save has just taken place. The tension is palpable as players from both teams watch with bated breath, their expressions reflecting the high stakes of the game. The skill and athleticism required to execute such a maneuver are evident in every line and stroke of Wollen's masterful engraving. Published in The Illustrated London News on February 4th, 1893, this illustration showcases Wollen's ability to capture not only the physicality but also the emotion inherent in competitive sports. It serves as a testament to his talent for bringing moments frozen in time to life through his art. This print now resides in a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its timeless depiction of rugby union football. Its presence reminds us of the enduring appeal and rich history behind one of our most beloved sports.
