EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in Cuban boxing history. Taken by Edward H. Hart on July 3,1899, the image showcases a thrilling 10-round bout that took place on the U. S. S. New York, coinciding with the anniversary of the Battle of Santiago in Cuba. The atmosphere is electric as an American audience eagerly watches this intense fight unfold. The crowd's anticipation is palpable, their faces filled with excitement and curiosity about who will emerge victorious from this gripping match. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see two skilled fighters engaged in combat inside a makeshift boxing ring set up on the exterior of the ship. Both men are wearing gloves and displaying remarkable agility and strength as they exchange blows. Surrounded by sailors observing from various vantage points on deck, these brave boxers showcase their prowess amidst a backdrop of naval power symbolized by the mighty U. S. S. New York. This photograph not only captures a significant sporting event but also serves as a testament to turn-of-the-century athleticism and camaraderie among men at sea during this era. Preserved through time thanks to Granger Art on Demand's collection, this print allows us to relive an important moment in both sports history and international relations between Cuba and America at the end of the 19th century.
