EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning colour lithograph print captures the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground from a bird's eye view, showcasing the bustling city of Sydney, Australia in all its glory. The image is part of a set of cigarette cards titled "Wings Over The Empire" issued by Churchman in 1939, offering a unique perspective on aviation and landmarks across the British Empire.
The detailed illustration, clearly based on contemporary photographs, highlights the grandeur and historical significance of this beloved sporting venue. From the lush green cricket pitch to the surrounding urban landscape, every intricate detail is brought to life with vibrant colours and meticulous attention to accuracy.
As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back to a bygone era when aviation was still in its infancy and exploration of distant lands was an exciting adventure. The synergy between technology and artistry is evident in this masterpiece created by an English School artist from the 20th century.
Whether you're a sports enthusiast or history buff, this print serves as a timeless reminder of Sydney's rich heritage and cultural importance. It invites us to marvel at the beauty of architecture and nature intertwined harmoniously beneath wings that soar over the empire with grace and elegance.
