EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in baseball history. It showcases the intense game between the New York Giants and the Chicago White Stockings on August 6,1885, at the Polo Grounds in New York City. The image depicts an exhilarating play as Giants catcher William Buck Ewing skillfully slides home to secure victory for his team with a winning run of 1-0. The wood engraving, created by Thure de Thulstrup and featured in a contemporary American newspaper, beautifully encapsulates the energy and excitement of this late 19th-century baseball match. The sepia-toned composition adds a nostalgic touch to this snapshot from Major League Baseball's early days. In this scene, Ewing's determination is evident as he evades Chicago's catcher Silver Flint's attempt to tag him out. Both players are captured mid-action, showcasing their athleticism and dedication to their respective teams. The umpire stands nearby, closely observing every move on the field. This print serves as a reminder of how far America's favorite pastime has come since its inception. It transports us back to an era when baseball was still evolving into the sport we know today. Whether you're a fan of historical sports moments or simply appreciate art that tells stories through time-honored images like this one, this Granger Collection piece is sure to be cherished for years to come.
