EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the idyllic and picturesque Bournville Village in the 1920s, as depicted in this vintage photograph from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, available exclusively on Mary Evans Prints Online. The image showcases a scene of tranquility and leisure, with two tennis courts nestled among the lush greenery and elegant Victorian and Edwardian houses that were characteristic of the Bournville community. The village, founded by the Cadbury family in the late 19th century, was renowned for its beautiful gardens, open spaces, and commitment to social welfare. The presence of these tennis courts is a testament to the active and healthy lifestyle that was encouraged within the community. The courts, with their pristine white lines and well-manicured grass, invite players to engage in friendly competition or casual practice. The photograph, taken as a lantern slide, adds an extra layer of nostalgia and charm. The soft focus and warm tones transport us back to a bygone era, where life moved at a slower pace and community spirit thrived. The image also serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage of Bournville Village, which continues to inspire and captivate visitors and residents alike. Whether used as a decorative piece in a home, a conversation starter, or a source of inspiration for a project, this photograph is a beautiful addition to any collection. It offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to appreciate the simple pleasures of life and the enduring appeal of tennis as a beloved pastime.
