EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, titled "Mr. E W Lewis Tennis Player," is a stunning reminder of the rich history and elegance of tennis during the Victorian and Edwardian eras in England. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an era when tennis was a popular pastime for the aristocracy and a symbol of refinement and sophistication. Mr. E W Lewis, the subject of this photograph, is depicted in mid-serve, his focus intently fixed on the ball as he prepares to make contact. His impeccably dressed attire, complete with a crisp white shirt, striped blazer, and straw hat, is a testament to the formal dress code of the time. The lantern slide format of the photograph adds to its antique charm, with the warm, golden tones enhancing the timeless quality of the image. As a tennis star and champion, Mr. Lewis would have been a celebrated figure in his community, drawing crowds to watch him play and embodying the grace and skill that the sport demanded. Tennis during this period was played primarily on grass courts, and the outdoor setting, with its lush greenery and open skies, further emphasizes the connection between the game and the natural world. This photograph is not only a beautiful representation of a bygone era but also a reminder of the enduring appeal of tennis as a sport and the joy it brings to people around the world. Whether displayed in a home, office, or gallery, "Mr. E W Lewis Tennis Player" is sure to captivate and inspire all who see it.
