From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
University Cricket Match at Lords is a 1862 by George Louis Palmella Busson Du Maurier, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a packed crowd watching a cricket match. Players are scattered across the field—some running, others batting or bowling. In the foreground, spectators sit on benches, chatting and cheering. A few men in tall hats stand nearby, while kids play in the background. Notice how the artist packed so many figures into one scene without missing a detail. The lines are loose but full of energy, making the chaos feel alive. Want to see more by this artist?
