This engraving titled "Humours of the Cricket-Field" takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of cricket in the late 19th century. The image, created by Alfred Chantrey Corbould, transports us to a time when sportsmanship and camaraderie were at their peak. The scene depicts a group of cricketers clad in traditional attire, showcasing an array of emotions on the field. Each player's face tells a unique story - some exuding nervousness while others radiate confidence. It is as if we can feel their excitement and anticipation through this print. The presence of an umpire adds authenticity to this snapshot from history, reminding us that even then fair play was paramount.
