EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the Rugby Scotland National Team in 1895, a time when the sport was in its infancy and the passion for rugby in Scotland was beginning to take root. The image, from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to an era of Victorian and Edwardian elegance. The team members, dressed in their traditional rugby kit, exude a sense of determination and camaraderie. Each player's expression conveys a deep focus and commitment to the game, as they prepare for battle on the rugby field. The team's uniforms, consisting of heavy woolen jerseys and knickers, reflect the harsh conditions of the time and the physical demands of the sport. The photograph was likely taken as a lantern slide, a popular medium for projecting images during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The use of this format adds to the nostalgic charm of the image, transporting us back to a time when rugby was a new and exciting pastime, and the national team was a source of great pride for the Scottish people. The Rugby Scotland National Team in 1895 marked the beginning of a rich rugby history for Scotland, which would see the team become a formidable force in international rugby. This photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of the game and the passion that has driven it forward for over a century.
