EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exhilarating moment of the Speed Skating event at the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. The focus is on East Germany's remarkable athlete, Christa Rothenburger Luding, as she glides across the ice with unparalleled grace and determination. In this historic race, Luding not only secured a gold medal but also set a new world record at the Olympic Oval in Calgary, Canada. Luding's exceptional performance did not stop there. Alongside her triumph in the 1000m event, she also claimed a silver medal in the 500m race during these memorable Games. Her achievements were not limited to winter sports alone; later that same year, Luding made history once again by winning a silver medal in sprint cycling at the Seoul Olympics. This groundbreaking accomplishment marked her as the first woman ever to earn medals in both Summer and Winter Olympics. The image perfectly encapsulates Luding's unwavering dedication and outstanding athleticism as she etches her name into sporting history. Colorsport photographer Stewart Fraser skillfully captured this iconic moment that showcases Luding's sheer talent and determination on ice. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are reminded of Luding's incredible legacy and how she defied boundaries to become one of sport's most accomplished athletes.
