EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a scene of children playing hand tennis, also known as hand pelota, in France around 1880. The image exudes a sense of innocence and joy as the young players engage in this educational and sporting activity.
The vibrant colors and dynamic composition bring to life the energy and enthusiasm of the children as they focus on hitting the ball back and forth with their hands. This traditional game not only provides entertainment but also helps develop coordination, teamwork, and sportsmanship among the participants.
Set against a backdrop of historic France, this snapshot from the late nineteenth century offers a glimpse into childhood pastimes of that era. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when outdoor play was an essential part of growing up.

The timeless appeal of hand tennis transcends generations, highlighting the universal joy found in playful activities that bring people together.
Overall, this print is a delightful representation of childhood innocence and the enduring spirit of sportsmanship that has been cherished throughout history.
