EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary A. F. Wilding, a New Zealand tennis player who dominated the Wimbledon Championships in the early 20th century. With an impressive four consecutive championship titles from 1910 to 1913, Wilding was a force to be reckoned with on the court.
However, his remarkable championship run came to an end in 1914 when he faced off against Australian player N. E. Brookes and was defeated in three straight sets. This historic match marked the conclusion of Wilding's reign as Wimbledon Men's Champion, but his legacy as one of the greatest players of his time remains intact.

Wilding's incredible talent and sportsmanship that continue to inspire generations of players to strive for greatness on and off the court. This print is a testament to his enduring legacy and contribution to the world of professional tennis.
