EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sports on the Ice, Curling in Scotland" takes us back to a time when winter sports were enjoyed with great enthusiasm. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of curling - a beloved Scottish pastime that has been cherished for centuries. The scene depicted showcases a thrilling medal match taking place at Fingask Curling Club in Perth, Scotland. The frozen Invernytie Loch serves as the perfect backdrop for this intense competition. As we gaze upon this historic moment frozen in time, we can almost feel the crispness of the icy air and hear the sound of stones gliding across the surface. Curlers dressed in traditional attire are seen meticulously strategizing their moves while gracefully sweeping their brooms to guide each stone towards its target. The camaraderie among players is evident as they engage in friendly banter and cheer on their teammates. This enchanting print not only celebrates curling but also pays homage to Scotland's rich sporting heritage. It reminds us of how sports have always brought people together, fostering a sense of community and shared passion. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, let it transport us back to a simpler time when winter meant gathering on frozen lakes and engaging in spirited competitions amidst breathtaking landscapes.
