Painting Description
"Kent v Lancashire, Canterbury 1906" is a significant work by English painter Albert Chevallier Tayler. Unveiled in 1907, the painting commemorates a notable cricket match between Kent and Lancashire at St. Lawrence Ground in Canterbury in August 1906.
Regarded as a quintessential representation of Edwardian cricket, the artwork vividly depicts a dynamic scene of the match on the ground, historically significant due to Kent's sensational victory. It highlights Frank Woolley, Kent's prominent cricketer, in the act of driving, while Lancashire's players and the crowd watch the action unfold.
The masterpiece, measuring approximately 2.7 meters wide and 1.6 meters high, allows Tayler's virtuosity to seep through; his attention to detail and mastery of capturing human movement and expressions are visible. The viewer can identify significant cricketers of the period, such as Arthur Fielder, Neil Hornby, and Johnny Tyldesley, among the painting's subjects.
Moreover, the painting is not only a depiction of a cricket match, but it also serves as a social commentary on Edwardian England, encompassing various social classes and their experiences. "Kent v Lancashire, Canterbury 1906" is a testament to Tayler's talent and his ability to deliver a visual narrative.
The work is housed in the pavilion at Lord's Cricket Ground, Westminster, London, a loan from Marylebone Cricket Club since the 1960s, celebrating its importance within sports art and reinforcing its historical ties with cricket. The cultural and historic significance of the painting is widely recognized within the realms of both art and cricket history.
