This photo print, titled "He caught Tom a smack under the chin" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century when bare knuckle boxing was at its peak. Created by the talented artist Pugnis, this illustration is part of the renowned collection Famous Fights. The image captures a pivotal moment in a boxing match, showcasing two determined fighters engaged in an intense battle. The central focus lies on one fighter delivering a powerful punch directly under his opponent's chin. The raw emotion and physicality are palpable as both men display their strength and resilience. Surrounding them is a vibrant crowd of spectators eagerly watching every move with anticipation. Their faces reveal a mix of excitement, tension, and admiration for these skilled athletes who have dedicated themselves to this demanding sport. Through this artwork, Pugnis skillfully conveys not only the physicality of boxing but also its significance as a spectator sport that captivated audiences during that era. This print serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of prizefighting throughout history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from over a century ago, we are reminded of the timeless nature of human competition and our fascination with witnessing feats of strength and determination unfold before our eyes.
