EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "BASEBALL GAME, 1889" we are transported back to a collegiate game of base-ball in America. The scene captures the essence of leisure and late 19th-century fashion as spectators gather around the diamond field. Created by W. P. Snyder, an American artist in 1889, this engraving beautifully depicts men and women engrossed in their own conversations and paying little attention to the game unfolding before them. The grandstand is filled with individuals donning stylish hats that were popular during that era, showcasing their unique sense of fashion. As we delve into the details of this artwork, it becomes evident that baseball was not just about the sport itself but also served as a social gathering for people from all walks of life. Although the players on the field strive for victory, it seems like they are merely background figures compared to the animated crowd surrounding them. This image reminds us how sports have always been a source of entertainment and camaraderie throughout history. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but wonder about these spectators' stories - what brought them here? What conversations were exchanged amidst cheers and laughter? Granger Art on Demand has once again captured a momentous piece of American history through this enchanting engraving by W. P. Snyder.
