The Oxford and Cambridge Boat-Race, the Rival Crews
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a historic moment in time, frozen forever in this photograph. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the intense competition between two prestigious universities. The image depicts rowers from both Oxford and Cambridge Universities, their faces filled with determination as they prepare to battle it out on the river. The rivalry is palpable as each crew eagerly awaits the starting signal. The rowers' strong physiques are evident, a testament to their rigorous training and dedication. This photograph was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on April 9th, 1892. It offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when university boat races were highly anticipated events that captivated audiences across England. Amongst these rival crews are old blues - experienced rowers who have previously competed in this renowned race. Each team is represented by skilled individuals from various colleges such as Trinity Hall, Christ Church, Corpus, Brasenose, Merton and more. As we gaze upon this image today, we can't help but marvel at the artistry of photography during that time period. This print serves as a visual reminder of the rich history and tradition associated with one of England's most celebrated sporting events – The Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race.
