Starting an Attack: A Riveting Moment from the 1931 England vs. Wales Rugby Match at Twickenham In this photograph, we are transported back in time to the 1931 rugby union match between England and Wales, held at the esteemed Twickenham Stadium. The image, titled "Starting an Attack," is an impressionistic masterpiece by renowned photographer Coller, capturing the raw energy and intensity of the game. The scene unfolds as the English team gathers at the scrum, their determined faces set on launching a powerful attack against their Welsh opponents. The players, dressed in their iconic rugby jerseys, are a testament to the athleticism and skill that defined the sport during the 1930s. The contrast between the players' focused expressions and the chaotic swirl of mud and grass beneath their feet creates a sense of tension and anticipation. The crowd, a sea of spectators dressed in their finest attire, watches intently from the sidelines, their collective breath held as they await the outcome of this pivotal moment in the game. The atmosphere is electric, with the roar of the crowd and the crackle of the damp earth underfoot adding to the sense of excitement. This photograph is a stunning reminder of the rich history and passion that surrounds rugby union, and the unforgettable moments that continue to define the sport. The image transports us back to a bygone era, allowing us to experience the thrill of the game as it was meant to be enjoyed – in all its raw, unfiltered glory.
