The story behind the motif
Lawn Tennis is a color print from 1887, preserved in the collections of the Library of Congress. The image depicts lawn tennis, the early form of the sport played outdoors on grass, which during the latter part of the 19th century quickly became a popular social pastime.
On the open lawn, a match is underway while the other figures watch the game from the sidelines. The attire, the rackets, and the well-ordered garden setting place the scene firmly in its time, yet the image’s calm rhythm between players, net, and greenery still feels remarkably appealing. A historic sporting motif with both movement and everyday life, where the early social side of tennis is given room to unfold.
Created: 1887.
Frame not included.
