EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, King Gustav V of Sweden (1858-1950) is seen engaging in a lively conversation with a group of elegantly dressed ladies and gentlemen after a tennis match. The year is estimated between 1912 and 1950, during the monarch's reign. The King, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a regal expression, seems to be in high spirits as he listens intently to one of his guests. The atmosphere is idyllic, with the sun casting a warm glow over the scene, and the lush greenery of the tennis court providing a picturesque backdrop. The guests, all dressed in their finest attire, appear to be captivated by the King's words, their faces reflecting a mix of admiration and amusement. The ladies, adorned in elegant gowns and hats, add an air of sophistication to the gathering, while the gentlemen, in their suits and ties, exude an air of wealth and refinement. King Gustav V, who reigned from 1907 until his death in 1950, was known for his love of outdoor activities, including tennis, hunting, and sailing. This photograph captures a moment of relaxation and enjoyment, as the King shares a moment of idle conversation with his guests, away from the formalities and responsibilities of royal life. The scene is reminiscent of a bygone era, one of elegance, wealth, and leisure, where the monarch and his subjects could come together to enjoy a simple pleasure like a game of tennis, and where the bonds of loyalty and respect between the King and his people were strong.
