In this print titled "Eynsford Bowls. Sir Oliver Hort Dyke bowling. 1938" we are transported back in time to a sunny day between the wars. The image captures a moment of leisure and camaraderie as Sir Oliver Hort Dyke, dressed in his finest attire, gracefully bowls on the lush green lawn. The scene is set outdoors, amidst the picturesque Eynsford Bowls club, where an eclectic group of players has gathered for a friendly match. A mixed group of men and women can be seen engaged in intense concentration while others watch intently from the sidelines. The crowd exudes an air of excitement and anticipation as they witness each precise movement. Spectators line up along the edge of the playing area, their eyes fixed on every twist and turn that unfolds before them. Their faces reveal a mix of delight, curiosity, and admiration for these skilled athletes who have mastered the art of lawn bowls. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates pre-war England's love affair with outdoor sports and social gatherings. It showcases not only the elegance and grace exhibited by Sir Oliver Hort Dyke but also highlights fashion trends at that time - hats being prominently worn by both players and spectators alike. "Between The Wars" has masterfully captured this timeless moment through their lens, allowing us to step into history for just a brief moment; reminding us of simpler times when community spirit thrived through shared passions like lawn bowls.
