EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A study in backs" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the world of Victorian Scotland. Taken in 1895, it showcases the iconic St Fort Curling Club located in Fife. The image transports us to a bygone era, where gentlemen dressed in their finest attire engage in the beloved Scottish sport of curling. The composition is strikingly unique as it focuses solely on the players' backs, capturing an intriguing perspective that draws our attention to their posture and body language. Each figure stands tall and poised, exuding both concentration and determination. Their rigid stances suggest a sense of discipline and camaraderie within this tight-knit community. The photograph's monochromatic palette adds to its timeless appeal, emphasizing the historical significance of this moment frozen in time. It serves as a testament to Scotland's rich sporting heritage while also offering valuable insights into Victorian society. Preserved by the Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland, this remarkable image invites us to reflect upon our connection with history and appreciate how sports have always played an integral role in shaping communities throughout time. As we gaze upon these anonymous figures from over a century ago, we are reminded of the enduring spirit that binds generations together through shared passions like curling.
