EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait graced the cover of Eve Magazine on the 13th of July, 1927. The image features the legendary tennis star, Suzanne Lenglen, in her prime. Born on May 24, 1899, Lenglen was a trailblazer in the sporting world during the Roaring Twenties. Known for her elegant playing style and unyielding determination, she dominated women's tennis, winning a total of 31 Grand Slam titles. The 1920s was an era of jazz, flapper fashion, and cultural revolution. Lenglen embodied the spirit of the times, both on and off the court. Her striking appearance, with her short bobbed hair and confident gaze, made her a fashion icon and a symbol of modernity. This photograph encapsulates a pivotal moment in tennis history. Lenglen had just won her sixth Wimbledon title, cementing her status as the greatest female tennis player of her time. The cover of Eve Magazine served as a testament to her achievements and her influence on popular culture. The 1920s were a decade of transformation, and Suzanne Lenglen was at the forefront of it all. Her impact on tennis and women's sports continues to be felt today, making her an enduring icon of the 20th century.
