The Ship Inn stands proudly in the background as spectators gather along the river path, eager for a glimpse of their favorite crew. Alongside them, a distillery emits its aromatic presence while doves gracefully fly above. The scene then shifts towards Mortlake as we follow the course of this thrilling race.

It encapsulates both tradition and passion for sportsmanship that has endured throughout generations. Through Tringham's skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail, "The Coming University Boat-Race" transports us back in time and allows us to witness firsthand this historic event that continues to captivate audiences even today.
