EDITORS COMMENTS
Step Back in Time: Hurdling in the Late Victorian Era This vintage photograph, titled 'Hurdling,' taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to the late Victorian era, around the turn of the 20th century. The image showcases an intriguing moment in the world of athletics during this period, as a determined athlete leaps over a series of hurdles with grace and agility. The Edwardian era, a time of social and technological advancements, is reflected in this photograph through the use of a lantern slide - an early form of visual presentation, popular for home entertainment and educational purposes. The crisp, black-and-white image captures the essence of the sport, with the hurdles arranged in a perfect line, the athlete's focused expression, and the sense of anticipation in the air. The early days of hurdling saw the sport evolve from its origins as a simple agility test to a competitive event. In the late Victorian era, the rules were standardized, with hurdles set at specific heights and distances. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring popularity of athletics and the human spirit of competition, even in an era before modern sports infrastructure and technology. As we marvel at this image, we are reminded of the rich history of athletics and the role it has played in shaping our culture. The photograph stands as a reminder of the timeless appeal of sports and the human capacity for perseverance and achievement, even in the face of adversity.
