EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned print captures a moment in history when Tunbridge Wells and United Brussels embarked on a tour of Belgium in 1896. Taken by an English photographer from the 19th century, this image is now part of the collection at the National Football Museum in Manchester, UK. In this group portrait, we see a team of skilled footballers proudly posing for the camera. Dressed in their traditional kits, these sportsmen exude confidence and camaraderie. The players' expressions reflect their passion for the game as they stand united against a backdrop that hints at the beauty of Belgium. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its representation of early football culture. It serves as a reminder that even over a century ago, football had already become an international sport with teams traveling across borders to compete. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when soccer was still evolving and gaining popularity worldwide. It reminds us that sports have always possessed the power to bring people together and create lasting memories. With Bridgeman Images preserving this piece of sporting history, it continues to inspire generations with its timeless charm and nostalgic appeal.
