Douglas Tilden was born on 1 May, 1861and died on 5 August, 1935. Douglas Tilden was a world-famous deaf sculptor who went to the California School for the Deaf in Berkeley, California. Many detect a certain homoeroticism in his works because they feature young athletic men who are often unclothed. In the Football Players, many people have noted that the scene of 2 young football players, one is injured and resting on the shoulder of another, and the other is tenderly bandaging the wounds, shows the intimate male bonding in sports as of interdependence between the players.
