Interesting shot. Any reason why (if at all known) the artist / sculpter chose 3 of the 4 w/o helmets + no shoulder pads. Probably the players were more roboust in those days.

Allan -

Very nice angle (and therefore composition), selective focus and slight toning.

Thank you Paul.

I am not certain of the choices made by the sculptor...or what was customary in the early 1900's in this regard.

Thanks Stuart.

You have already noticed the closeup in the "Other" section that I posted of this bronze.

Thanks.

Allan
