EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch captures the essence of Suzanne Lenglen, the French girl lawn-tennis champion, as she was known to the British media in 1923. The image, created in July of that year, showcases Lenglen's focused determination and graceful athleticism, embodying the spirit of a sporting icon. Born in 1899 in Compiègne, France, Suzanne Lenglen quickly rose to prominence in the world of tennis, dominating the women's game in the 1910s and 1920s. Her innovative playing style, which emphasized power and agility, set her apart from her contemporaries and earned her a legion of admirers. This sketch, created during the height of Lenglen's career, captures her in mid-serve, her body poised and ready to propel the ball towards her opponent. The artist has expertly rendered the subtle details of her tennis outfit, from the crisp white blouse and pleated skirt to the distinctive headband that became a signature part of her on-court look. Lenglen's impact on tennis extended beyond her impressive record of 31 Grand Slam titles. Her charisma and flair for self-promotion made her a media sensation, and she was known for her bold fashion choices and unconventional behavior both on and off the court. The British media, in particular, took a keen interest in Lenglen, often referring to her simply as "Suzanne" in their reports. This historical sketch offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and career of one of tennis' most legendary figures, capturing her in a moment of athletic grace and determination. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of sport to captivate and inspire, and of the indelible mark that Suzanne Lenglen left on the game of tennis and on the world of sports as a whole.
