EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the enchanting year of 1845, where the elegant and intriguing game of real tennis was being passionately played at the magnificent mansion of Strathfieldsaye in Scotland. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of a bygone era, as we witness Prince Albert, the consort of Queen Victoria, fully immersed in the intense and engaging world of real tennis. Real tennis, a precursor to modern lawn tennis, was a popular sport among the European aristocracy during the 16th to 18th centuries. The game was played indoors in specially designed courts, featuring high walls and a trussed roof, which provided an intimate and atmospheric setting for intense competition. In this photograph, we see Prince Albert, dressed in formal attire, intently focused on the game as he skillfully maneuvers his racket, while his opponent, likely a member of the Scottish nobility, returns the ball with equal determination. The air in the room seems charged with excitement, as the onlookers, including an attentive young boy, eagerly observe the match unfold. The mansion of Strathfieldsaye, nestled in the picturesque Scottish countryside, serves as the perfect backdrop for this historic moment. The grand architecture, with its ornate details and intricate stonework, adds to the overall sense of opulence and refinement. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and enduring appeal of real tennis, which continues to captivate and inspire tennis enthusiasts around the world. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and sophistication of this ancient sport and the remarkable individuals who played it.
