Omerth around 1900, this artwork is now housed at the National Football Museum in Manchester, UK. The figure depicted in this piece exudes energy and determination, perfectly encapsulating the spirit of the game. With every muscle tensed and his gaze fixed on the goal ahead, it is evident that this player possesses both skill and agility. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate folds of fabric on his uniform to the meticulous rendering of each facial feature. This statuette truly brings to life a moment frozen in time - a testament to both artistic talent and love for football.
