EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph print titled "Patsey Kerrigan, Pugilist" showcases the remarkable athleticism and strength of this renowned British boxer. Produced in 1888 as part of the Worlds Champions series for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, this colorful piece is a testament to the artistry of lithography. In this portrait, Patsey Kerrigan stands confidently with his bare chest and semi-dressed attire, exuding an air of determination and resilience. His piercing gaze looks away from the viewer, hinting at his unwavering focus on his craft. The artist skillfully captures every detail of Kerrigan's physicality, emphasizing his muscular build and powerful stance. As one person in a long line of celebrated sportsmen during the late 19th century, Patsey Kerrigan represents both the spirit of boxing and British sporting heritage. The Western script text accompanying the image adds historical context to this trade card collectible. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this lithotint print serves as a visual time capsule that transports viewers back to a bygone era when sportswear was simpler yet no less impactful. It reminds us that even in its early days, boxing held immense cultural significance as a display of strength and skill. Through its vibrant colors and meticulous detailing, "Patsey Kerrigan, Pugilist" immortalizes an icon who left an indelible mark on both Scottish and English sporting history.
