EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Opening of the New Princes Club" transports us back to a momentous event in London's history. The image captures the grandeur of this occasion as it depicts the Prince of Wales inaugurating the club with a thrilling tennis match between Mr A Lyttleton and C Saunders. The scene is set at Knightsbridge, where distinguished guests gather to witness this remarkable event. The Prince of Wales himself takes center stage, exuding elegance and regality as he prepares to serve. Surrounding him are spectators eagerly awaiting every swing and volley, their anticipation palpable in the air. The artist Charles J. Staniland masterfully brings this historical moment to life through intricate engravings that showcase both architectural details and human emotions. Every stroke reveals an attention to detail that allows viewers to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of this prestigious sports event.
