EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, hailing from the annals of cricket history, showcases the England cricket team of 1885, with W.G. Grace gracing the center stage. Surrounded by his esteemed colleagues, the image encapsulates the essence of camaraderie and athleticism that defined the sport during the 1880s. The team is a veritable who's who of cricketing greats, including Barnes, Lyttelton, Shrewsbury, Gunn, Bates, Steel, Read, Peate, Barlow, and Ulyett. Each man wears the traditional cricket attire of the era - red and yellow blazers, blue caps adorned with white stripes, and crisp white collared shirts. The team's unity is further emphasized by their shared gaze towards the camera, as if to say, "We are one, we are the England cricket team." The backdrop of the photograph is a perfect blend of the old and the new. London's iconic Tower Bridge looms in the distance, symbolizing the city's industrial prowess, while the towering oak leaves in the foreground pay homage to the game's rich heritage. The image is a testament to the heroic spirit of the cricketers of the era, who played the game not just for glory, but for the love of the sport. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the storied history of the universities of Cambridge and Oxford, whose alumni dominated the English cricket scene during this period. Names like Johns of Cambridge and Johns of Magdalen College, Oxford, are synonymous with the game's golden age. This photograph, a vignette of a bygone era, transports us back to a time when cricket was more than just a sport, it was a way of life.
