EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the world of polo - the intense competition between Ranelagh, representing the British Army, and Federations Des Polos De France for the prestigious Verdun Cup. The year was 1927, an era that exudes elegance and sophistication. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see four distinguished members of the French team proudly posing for the camera. Victor Rosenthal, Hubert De Monbrison, H Couterie, and J F Macaire epitomize gracefulness as they stand tall with their polo mallets by their sides. Their impeccable attire reflects both their status as sportsmen and their commitment to style. The image transports us back to a bygone era when polo was not just a sport but also a display of character and skill. The men's steely gazes reveal determination while mounted on powerful horses ready to charge into action at any given moment. Alfieri's masterful monochrome composition adds depth to this photograph, emphasizing every detail from the players' facial expressions down to each horse's muscular form. It is evident that Alfieri has captured more than just a sporting event; he has immortalized personalities who have left an indelible mark on history through their passion for polo. This remarkable piece of Europeana photography serves as a testament to human achievement in sportsmanship while simultaneously capturing our imagination with its timeless beauty.
