Sir Claude and Lady Champion de Crespigny, Tatler cover
Sir Claude Champion de Crespigny, 4th Baronet (1847-1935), soldier, sportsman and adventurer, pictured on the front cover of The Tatler in 1927 beside his wife, Lady Champion de Crespigny at Champion Lodge, Maldon, Essex. Sir Claudes life reads like that of a fictional Victorian action hero. After a military career, he became expert in a number of sports. As a ballooning enthusiast he was the first man to cross the North Sea in 1883. He was also a big-game hunter, a fearless diver, canoeist, sailor and swimmer (becoming the first European to swim the Nile rapids in 1889) and as a jockey, he rode his last steeplechase at the age of 67. Unsurprisingly, his maxim in life was, Where there is a daring deed to be done in any part of the world, an Englishman should leap to the front to accomplish it. In 1872, he married Georgina McKerrel with whom he had five sons and four daughters. Date: 1927

EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait graced the cover of The Tatler magazine in 1927, featuring Sir Claude Champion de Crespigny, 4th Baronet (1847-1935), and his wife, Lady Champion de Crespigny, at their residence, Champion Lodge, in Maldon, Essex. Sir Claude's life was a testament to the adventurous spirit of the Victorian era. After serving in the military, he became an expert in various sports, making him a true polymath of physical pursuits. As a pioneering balloonist, Sir Claude was the first man to cross the North Sea in 1883. His passion for hunting led him to become a big-game hunter, while his fearlessness extended to underwater exploration, canoeing, sailing, and swimming. In 1889, he became the first European to swim the Nile rapids. In the realm of horse racing, he continued to compete as a jockey, riding his last steeplechase at the age of 67. Sir Claude's maxim in life was, "Where there is a daring deed to be done in any part of the world, an Englishman should leap to the front to accomplish it." In 1872, Sir Claude married Georgina McKerrel, with whom he had five sons and four daughters. Their union embodied the aristocratic tradition and the spirit of adventure that defined the Champion de Crespigny family. This portrait captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing the courage, elegance, and daring spirit of Sir Claude and Lady Champion de Crespigny.
