EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Brasenose Rugby XV team from 1892-3, frozen in time. The image showcases a group of determined young men, clad in their rugby attire, ready to take on any challenge that comes their way. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this historic print now resides in a private collection. It holds immense historical significance as it was used as an illustration for Joseph Foster's book "Oxford Men and their Colleges" published in 1893. The photo highlights the camaraderie among these university undergraduates who represent Brasenose College. Each player's face tells a unique story - determination etched into their expressions as they prepare for battle on the field. Among them are notable individuals such as H. J. H Irish, T. D Stanger Leathes, A. Garrett, R. Newman, R. H Dun, H. B. P Brock and many others whose names have become part of Oxford University's sporting history. This snapshot not only immortalizes these talented athletes but also provides us with a glimpse into the rich sporting traditions of Oxford University during that era. It serves as a reminder of how sports have always played an integral role in shaping student life and fostering bonds within academic institutions. Preserved through photography by MZphoto (not affiliated with any company), this print is a testament to both the artistry behind capturing moments frozen in time and its ability to transport us back to significant periods of our collective past.
