EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "An Indian Wimbledon" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a local meeting of the Bengal Presidency Rifle Association. This engraving, featured in The Graphic on July 19,1890, offers a fascinating glimpse into an extraordinary sporting event. In this image, competitors can be seen gathered around tents and gentlemanly figures engaged in shooting activities. The difficulty and defeat are evident on their faces as they strive for excellence in marksmanship. Elbows rest on shoulders while hats provide shade from the West Indian sun. The scene is filled with unique accessories invented to assist these skilled marksmen. Patent coolers hang from slings attached to their hats, providing relief from the scorching heat. Umbrellas are strategically placed to shield participants in their sitting positions. As play commences, rifles are aimed at targets with precision goggles protecting eyes from spattering debris at short range officers. Confound by fault or daag marksman may encounter during competition; leather leathers protect them against any mishaps. This remarkable engraving captures not only the spirit of sport but also highlights the cultural fusion between India and England during colonial times. It serves as a testament to the passion for rifle shooting that transcends borders and brings people together for friendly challenges like those witnessed at this Indian Wimbledon gathering.
