EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "FVQ-F-089279-0000" we are transported back to the year 1880, where a group of people is captured in action while playing cricket in a picturesque courtyard. The image showcases not only the sport but also various elements of architecture and fashion prevalent during that era. The setting itself is remarkable, with a beautiful court surrounded by elegant building elements. A grand portico frames the scene, adding an air of sophistication to the composition. An open gallery extends along one side of the courtyard, providing spectators with a perfect vantage point to witness the game. As our gaze shifts towards the individuals involved, we notice their distinct attire and accessories. Both men and women can be seen donning fashionable clothing from that time period – hats and headdresses adorning their heads add an extra touch of style. It's fascinating to observe how fashion choices varied between civilians, military personnel, and religious figures present within this diverse gathering. Amidst all these architectural details and sartorial splendor lies the heart of this photograph – cricket! The players are engrossed in their game, showcasing their skills on what appears to be a well-maintained pitch within the courtyard. A tree stands tall nearby, its branches swaying gently as if cheering on these sporting enthusiasts. This print by an Unidentified Author from Alinari offers us a glimpse into history through its meticulous depiction of both human activity and natural surroundings. It serves as a reminder that sports have always been an integral part of society across different eras – bringing people together for moments filled with competition, camaraderie, and joy.
