EDITORS COMMENTS
. This 1882 engraving captures a pivotal moment in sporting history - "The Sculling Match on the Tyne between Hanlan and Boyd for the Championship of the World". The image is divided into five distinct scenes, each depicting a different stage of this intense race. In the first scene, we witness both scullers preparing at the start line, their determination palpable. As they push off, neck and neck in scene two, their synchronized strokes create an awe-inspiring spectacle. Moving swiftly along with them, we catch sight of Newcastle's iconic Chain Bridge looming ahead. Scene three showcases their relentless pursuit as they approach this landmark with unwavering focus. As we reach scene four, tension fills the air as both athletes near exhaustion. With every ounce of strength left within them, they propel towards victory or defeat. Finally, in scene five, after an exhilarating battle to cross that finish line first – hands are shaken in mutual respect and admiration. This engraved image not only offers a glimpse into an enthralling historical event but also serves as a testament to Victorian illustrative techniques. Its retro-styled charm transports us back to a bygone era when sportsmanship reigned supreme.
