EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the late 19th century with this print of a mixed doubles tennis game at the Casino in Newport, Rhode Island. Taken around 1885, this image showcases an era when tennis was not only a sport but also a symbol of upper-class leisure and refinement. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of the magnificent Casino building, its grandeur accentuated by the elegant fence that encloses the court. Spectators dressed in their finest attire gather around, eagerly watching as men and women from wealthy backgrounds engage in friendly competition. Intriguingly captured is a snapshot of New England's pastime where social boundaries are momentarily blurred. The players wield their rackets skillfully, showcasing both athleticism and grace. As they volley back and forth across the net, it becomes clear that tennis transcends gender roles on this court. This photograph offers more than just a glimpse into history; it invites us to imagine ourselves amidst this vibrant moment of recreation and vacationing. It reminds us of an era when Newport was synonymous with luxury resorts and opulent lifestyles. As you admire this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand's carousel collection, let yourself be transported to an age where tennis served as both entertainment for spectators and a cherished pastime for those fortunate enough to partake.
