EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the scenic Mountain House, Cresson Springs, Pennsylvania, captured in this vintage print from around 1900. The unknown creator beautifully depicts a vibrant scene of people enjoying a game of tennis on the grounds of the historic Mountain House Hotel. Built in 1881, this architectural gem stands proudly amidst the picturesque landscape of Cresson Springs. The image showcases the grandeur and charm of Victorian-era America. The hotel's elegant exterior with its inviting veranda sets the stage for leisurely activities against a backdrop of rolling mountains. Professor George R. Cromwell curated this snapshot as part of his renowned collection titled 'Scenic Marvels of the New World. ' As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to an era where country resorts offered solace and recreation for weary city dwellers seeking respite from their bustling lives. The energy and excitement emanating from those playing tennis remind us that sports have always been an integral part of human connection and enjoyment. This photograph is not just a glimpse into history but also a testament to enduring architecture, untouched landscapes, and timeless pastimes. It serves as a reminder that even though time moves forward relentlessly, there will always be moments frozen in prints like these that allow us to relish our heritage.
