EDITORS COMMENTS
The End of the Cricket Season - scene in the pavilion at Lords Cricket Ground captures a lively and humorous moment in the world of cricket. This engraving, created by Harry Furniss for Punch magazine in 1885, showcases his satirical style and keen observation of Victorian society. In this bustling scene, we see gentlemen players and sportsmen gathered inside the pavilion at Lords Cricket Ground. The room is filled with animated conversation as they discuss their recent matches and share anecdotes from the season. Amongst them are notable figures such as W. G. Grace, A. N. Hornby, Lord Harris, and many others who were prominent cricketers during that era. Furniss's caricatures bring each character to life with exaggerated features and expressive gestures. Their interactions reflect both camaraderie and friendly competition among these cricket enthusiasts. This cartoon not only captures a specific moment in cricket history but also provides insight into British culture during the Victorian period. It highlights the popularity of cricket as a national pastime while showcasing Furniss's talent for humorously depicting social scenes. As an engraving from Fine Art Finder's collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an important aspect of English sporting heritage through its detailed depiction of players' attire, interior design elements within the pavilion, and even references to German visitors present on that occasion.
