EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Wrestling" takes us back to 19th century England and offers a glimpse into the historical pastimes of its people. The print, part of a private collection, is an illustration for Joseph Strutt's renowned book "The Sports and Pastimes of the People of England". Originally published in 1801, this edition was enlarged and corrected by J Charles Cox around 1890. The artwork depicts two wrestlers engaged in a fierce match. With their muscular bodies intertwined in an intense struggle for dominance, they showcase the physicality and skill required in this traditional English sport. Wrestling has long been cherished as both a game and a sport throughout history. This print not only captures the essence of wrestling but also provides valuable insights into English culture during that era. It serves as a reminder of how sports have played an integral role in shaping societies across Europe. With its fine engravings faithfully reproduced from the original edition, this lithograph showcases the mastery of technique employed by German artists at that time. Its inclusion within Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection ensures that it can be appreciated by art enthusiasts worldwide. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported to another time - one where wrestling served as both entertainment and competition; where games were cherished pastimes; where history unfolded through various sporting activities.
