EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph print captures the essence of George Bubear, a renowned oarsman and true British sportsman. Taken from the "Worlds Champions" series by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes in 1887, this image showcases Bubear's impressive physique and determined expression. Dressed in sportswear of the era, Bubear stands as a symbol of strength and athleticism. His red attire adds a pop of color to the scene, contrasting beautifully with the blue background. The intricate lithography technique used to create this portrait further enhances its visual appeal. Bubear's moustache and facial hair give him an air of sophistication, while his intense gaze suggests his unwavering dedication to rowing. As an oarsman or sculler, he has undoubtedly spent countless hours honing his skills on the water. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this lithotint print – from Bubear's well-defined features to the Western script text that accompanies it. This trade card serves not only as a collectible item but also as a testament to Bubear's accomplishments in his chosen profession. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this piece offers us a glimpse into 19th-century Britain and celebrates both sporting excellence and artistic craftsmanship. It reminds us that behind every great athlete lies years of hard work, determination, and passion for their chosen sport - qualities embodied by George Bubear himself.
