EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in women's ice hockey, showcasing a ladies match taking place on the frozen lake of Wimbledon Park. The image, later colorized to bring it to life, was captured by Arthur Hopkins, an esteemed photographer from the 19th and early 20th century. In this snapshot of leisure time in England during the late 1800s or early 1900s, we witness a group of women gracefully gliding across the ice rink. Their vibrant attire adds a touch of elegance to their athletic prowess as they engage in this exhilarating sport. The scene is set against the backdrop of London's iconic landmarks, reminding us that even amidst bustling city life, moments of joy and recreation can be found. These courageous players challenge societal norms and embrace their love for ice skating fearlessly. Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully preserved this piece of history through his careful restoration work on this photograph. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness these pioneering women enjoying themselves on the ice. This artwork serves as a testament to the progress made by women in sports throughout history and reminds us that passion knows no boundaries. It stands as an inspiration for future generations who continue to break barriers and excel in their chosen fields.
