EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Sapporo Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony on February 13,1972. The image showcases Avery Brundage, the esteemed President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) at that time. Serving as the fifth president from 1952 to 1972, Brundage holds a significant place in Olympic history as he was the only American to ever attain this prestigious position. Renowned for his unwavering support for amateurism in sports, Brundage's influence and dedication are evident throughout his tenure. Notably, he played an instrumental role in organizing two monumental Summer Olympics held in Germany; first in 1936 and later again in 1972. The photograph perfectly encapsulates both the grandeur and solemnity of this closing ceremony during the eleventh edition of the Winter Games. As athletes bid farewell to their unforgettable experiences on snow and ice, Brundage stands tall amidst them all - a symbol of unity and sporting excellence. Preserved by Colorsport Images and masterfully captured by Stewart Fraser, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into a pivotal moment within Olympic history. It serves as a testament to not only Brundage's influential leadership but also highlights how sport has always transcended borders and brought nations together through friendly competition.
