The Thames National Regatta Prize, 1854. Creator: Unknown

The Thames National Regatta Prize, 1854. Rowing prizes. Above all towers the Grand Challenge Cup, for eight-oared boats (gentlemen amateurs) - a fine silver-gilt piece of plate, with ornamental cover, surmounted by a figure of Neptune; twisted snake handles, and ornamental scroll work...in the centre of the group, is the handsome Silver Challenge Vase, for flowers, to be used also as a wine-cooler. This is the prize for the gentlemen's four-oared race...The groups of nine cups each, immediately under the Grand Challenge Cup on either side are the "scratch" race prizes...The gold oars and rudder are the most elegant we ever recollect to have seen...These several prizes have been designed and manufactured by Messrs. Edkins, of Salisbury-square, Fleet-street...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
