EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of George Giffen, a legendary cricketer from the late 19th century. Published in 1895 by Hudson and Kearns, this print is a testament to Giffen's remarkable career and enduring legacy. George Giffen, with his distinguished moustache and intense gaze, exudes an air of confidence and determination. As one of Australia's finest all-rounders, he played a pivotal role in the original Ashes series in 1882. Known for his exceptional skills both as a batsman and bowler, Giffen was instrumental in securing victory for his team. In this three-quarter length portrait, we witness the strength and athleticism that made him such a formidable sportsman. The intensity in his eyes reflects his unwavering commitment to the game he loved. Captured by an English photographer whose name remains unknown but whose talent shines through this image, it is clear that they understood how to capture not just Giffen's physicality but also his passion for cricket. Now part of a private collection, this photograph serves as a timeless reminder of George Giffen's contribution to the sport. It stands as an homage to one of cricket's greatest players - an icon who left an indelible mark on Australian cricket history.
