Ernest Barry - A Champion on the Water
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Ernest James Barry (1882-1968), a five-time sculling world champion and later Royal Barge Master to both George VI and Elizabeth II of England, in his element. Between c1910 and c1915, Bain News Service immortalized this British rower's seated pose on the water, showcasing his impressive physique and concentration as he grips the oars.
As a renowned sculler, Barry dominated international competitions during the early 20th century. His remarkable achievements earned him recognition beyond Britain's borders. As Royal Barge Master, he played a key role in ceremonial events for both monarchs.
This black-and-white photograph is part of Bain News Service's extensive archive of press photography from the era. The image has been preserved through glass negatives and now serves as an enduring testament to Barry's remarkable sporting career and his later esteemed position within British royal circles.
