This print titled "Oxford versus Cambridge at the Queens Club (engraving)" takes us back to a historic sporting event that unfolded in 1904. The image, captured by Ralph Cleaver, showcases an intense football match between two prestigious universities - Oxford and Cambridge. The scene is set at the Queens Club, where a large crowd has gathered to witness this highly anticipated clash of intellects on the field. As we delve into the engraving, it becomes evident that Cambridge emerged victorious with an astounding 5-0 win over their rivals from Oxford. The atmosphere is electric as players clad in traditional clothing fiercely compete for control of the ball. Each move is met with anticipation from both sides' supporters who anxiously await a goal or defensive triumph. This game not only represents a battle on the pitch but also symbolizes the age-old rivalry between these esteemed institutions. Cleaver's artwork beautifully captures every moment of this enthralling encounter, showcasing both skillful play and strategic maneuvering by each team. It serves as a testament to the passion and dedication exhibited by these young athletes during this parlour game turned spectacle.
