EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by Otto Herschan, takes us back to the year 1860. The image showcases members of the Royal Engineers Football Team, proudly posing for the camera during their time in India. In this historic snapshot, we witness a group of determined young men dressed in their military uniforms, standing tall with an air of camaraderie and sporting prowess. Their passion for football is evident as they pose confidently on a landscape backdrop. The composition exudes a sense of unity and discipline that was characteristic of both army life and team sports during that era. These soldiers not only dedicated themselves to serving their country but also found solace and joy in playing football amidst unfamiliar surroundings. As we delve deeper into this remarkable photograph, it becomes apparent that sport transcends borders and cultures. Here we have British soldiers engaging with locals through their shared love for football – an activity that bridged gaps between different communities. Otto Herschan's masterful use of black and white format adds depth to this historical gem, emphasizing the timeless nature of human connection through sport.
