EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the days of the Tudors, specifically during the reigns of Henry VII and Henry VIII. The illustration depicts a game of real tennis, also known as royal tennis, which was popular during this era. The scene is set in England, showcasing a picturesque countryside location where players engage in this ancient sport. The monochrome effect adds an air of nostalgia and authenticity to the image, transporting us straight into history. As we observe closely, we can see the intricate details captured by Charles Ray's expert editing. The players are dressed in traditional Tudor attire, with ruffled collars and elaborate garments that reflect their social status. Their intense focus on the game reveals their passion for this noble pastime. Real tennis was not just a leisure activity but also served as a symbol of power and prestige among royalty and nobility. It required skillful technique and strategic thinking to navigate through its complex rules. This print serves as a window into both 16th-century England and 1930s Britain when it was published. It reminds us of our rich sporting heritage while honoring the legacy left behind by our ancestors. Thanks to Heritage Images' preservation efforts, we can still appreciate these glimpses into our past today – allowing us to connect with history through artistry like never before.
