EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait, we are transported back to the 27th of November, 1953. The renowned English novelist William Somerset Maugham takes center stage as the guest of honor at a lively bridge party held at Crockfords Club. Captured by Maurice Ambler for Picture Post magazine, this image exudes an air of sophistication and British charm. Maugham, then aged 80, is portrayed as a distinguished elderly gentleman with his signature round glasses perched on his nose. His cheerful expression reveals a man who not only enjoys the game but also relishes in the company of others. Surrounded by fellow players engrossed in their cards, Maugham's presence adds an undeniable aura to the scene. As one of Britain's most celebrated literary figures, he brings with him a wealth of knowledge and creativity that transcends beyond his written works. This photograph serves as a testament to both Maugham's enduring legacy in literature and his love for leisure activities such as bridge. It captures a moment frozen in time when intellectual conversations mingled with friendly competition under the roof of Crockfords Club. As we gaze upon this archival gem from Fine Art Storehouse, we can't help but feel drawn into its nostalgic allure—a glimpse into British culture during the mid-20th century where card games were not just pastimes but opportunities for connection and camaraderie among esteemed personalities like William Somerset Maugham.
