EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1900 showcases William Dudley Ward, the President of the Cambridge University Boat Club (C. U. B. C). Captured by renowned artist Sir Leslie Matthew Ward, this image offers a side view of Ward standing confidently. William Dudley Ward was not only an accomplished sportsman but also a prominent Liberal politician. Serving as an MP for Southampton from 1906 to 1922, he left his mark on both the sporting and political arenas. In fact, he was part of the British boat Sorais that won a bronze medal in the 8-metre class at the 1908 Summer Olympics. The lithograph originates from Vanity Fair and was published on March 29th, 1900 by Vincent Brooks, Day & Son Ltd in London. The black and white portrait beautifully captures Ward's profile while wearing traditional rowing attire. His hands rest casually in his pockets as if ready to embark on another thrilling race. This historical photograph not only represents one man's achievements but also symbolizes the spirit of camaraderie and dedication found within university sports clubs during that era. It serves as a reminder of how education and athleticism can intertwine to shape individuals who excel both on and off the field. As we admire this vintage print today, it allows us to reflect upon William Dudley Ward's contributions as a sportsman, politician, and member of society during early twentieth-century England.
