EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic sculpture "The Cricketer" by renowned Welsh artist Barry Flanagan, situated in the tranquil setting of Jesus College, Jesus Lane, in the historic city of Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. The image was taken in the year 2015 by James O. Davies for Historic England. Barry Flanagan (b. 1941 – 2009) was a leading figure in the British art scene during the post-war era, known for his innovative and playful approach to sculpture. "The Cricketer" is a prime example of his signature style, which often incorporated organic forms and unexpected materials. This bronze sculpture, created in 1989, depicts a cricketer in a seemingly casual yet contemplative pose. The figure's elongated limbs and exaggerated proportions add a whimsical touch to the piece, while the intricate details of the cricketing equipment and clothing ground the work in reality. The serene environment of Jesus College's gardens provides the perfect backdrop for "The Cricketer," allowing the viewer to appreciate the sculpture's intricacies and the interplay of light and shadow. The verdant foliage and the ancient architecture of the college create a sense of timelessness, making for a captivating juxtaposition with the contemporary artwork. James O. Davies' photograph masterfully captures the essence of Flanagan's sculpture, inviting the viewer to ponder the relationship between art, nature, and history. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring beauty of Cambridge and its rich cultural heritage but also a celebration of the creative spirit that flourished in post-war Britain.
