EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 18th century print captures the essence of youth and passion as a young cricketer focuses intently on the game before him. Dressed in the traditional attire of the time, complete with high-waisted breeches, long-sleeved shirt, and a broad-brimmed hat, this determined figure embodies the spirit of the early days of cricket. The scene is set against the backdrop of a lush, green cricket field, with the iconic Marylebone Cricket Club pavilion visible in the distance. Established in 1787, the Marylebone Cricket Club holds a significant place in the history of the game, making this print an authentic representation of the sport's rich heritage. The young cricketer's intense gaze and focused posture convey a deep connection to the game, as he poises himself for the perfect shot. The intricate details of the print, from the creases in his clothing to the texture of the cricket ball, bring the image to life and transport us back in time. This print offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of 18th century cricket and the passion that drove its early players. It serves as a reminder of the game's enduring appeal and the timeless joy that comes from stepping out onto the field and giving it your all.
