EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the intense rivalry between Oxford and Cambridge in a hockey match held at Beckenham, Kent. The year is 1923, and the atmosphere is electric as players battle it out on the field. But amidst all the action, our attention is drawn to Miss Phyllis Kermode, an incredibly talented caricaturist from Bystander magazine. With her sketchbook in hand, she focuses her artistic eye on B G Whitfield, the captain of Cambridge team. As she skillfully captures his likeness with swift strokes of her pencil, one can almost feel the intensity emanating from both artist and subject. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image from Alfieri's collection. It transports us to a bygone era when men donned their jerseys and grasped their hockey sticks with determination. The towering trees surrounding the field provide a picturesque backdrop for this thrilling sporting event. This photograph not only immortalizes a significant moment in sports history but also showcases the talent of Miss Phyllis Kermode as she effortlessly brings characters to life through her artistry. It serves as a reminder that even amidst fierce competition, there is always room for creativity and appreciation for beauty. Alfieri's photography continues to capture these fleeting moments that resonate with viewers across time and space.
