EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from the archives of "Illustrated London News" in 1876, showcases the Cambridge University crew member, T.W. Lewis, during the annual Boat Race against Oxford University on the River Thames in London. The tradition of this prestigious rowing race between the two renowned academic institutions began in 1829, featuring all-male crews of students. In this image, T.W. Lewis, a proud representative of Caius College, Cambridge University, is depicted in the midst of the intense competition. The river's serene surface belies the fierce determination and unyielding spirit of the rowers, as they strive to outpace their opponents. The photograph, an engraving from the era, captures the essence of the 19th century's passion for education, sports, and the press. The Boat Race has since evolved, with the first women's race taking place in 1927. This photograph, however, stands as a testament to the rich history of this iconic event and the unwavering commitment of the students involved. The image is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on the 19th century, arts, and the world of education and sports.
