EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from the late 19th century showcases C. W. V. Clarke, a prominent sportsman and champion walker of his time. The image is part of the renowned Worlds Champions series, produced by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes in 1888. In this portrait, Clarke exudes confidence and strength as he poses against a vibrant red backdrop. Dressed in sportswear typical of the era, Clarke stands out with his white tee shirt adorned with Western script text. His attire reflects both style and functionality for athletic pursuits. The attention to detail in this lithotint print is remarkable, capturing every fold and crease of his clothing. The artist behind this masterpiece is Claus Lindner Eddy, who skillfully employed color lithography to bring out the richness of hues seen throughout the composition. With English text accompanying the image, viewers are provided with additional context about Clarke's achievements as a sportsman. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this trade card serves as an invaluable historical artifact that offers insight into sporting culture during the late 19th century. It not only celebrates one person's accomplishments but also represents an era when physical prowess was highly regarded. As we admire this lithograph today, we can appreciate its artistic merit while recognizing its significance in documenting our shared heritage through visual storytelling.
