EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the esteemed American contract bridge players, Mr and Mrs Ely Culbertson, in 1931. Ely Culbertson, a prominent figure in the development of contract bridge during its boom in popularity in the 1930s, not only showcased his exceptional skills as a player but also dedicated himself to teaching and writing about the game. In this image, he is seen wearing a dapper tuxedo with a bow tie while his wife Josephine exudes elegance in her beautiful dress. The couple's love for each other is evident as they sit at their card table engrossed in an intense game of bridge. Their passion for this pastime brought them together when they married in 1923. Josephine herself was no stranger to success within the world of bridge. Set against an unknown backdrop that hints at mid-20th century America, this portrait offers a glimpse into both their personal lives and their dedication to their craft. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timeless sophistication to the scene. As we admire this historical photograph from Heritage Images' collection, it serves as a reminder of how games can bring people together and create lasting bonds. The legacy left by Mr and Mrs Ely Culbertson continues to inspire countless individuals who share their love for bridge around the world today.
