This photograph, taken in August 1881, captures the intensity and excitement of the semi-final 81 match between Lawford and Renshaw at the Lawn Tennis Championship at Wimbledon. The image transports us back in time to an era when tennis was still in its infancy as a competitive sport. The scoreboard in the background indicates that this was the fifth round of the all-comers match, a significant stage in the tournament. The crowd, dressed in their finest attire, is fully engrossed in the action, their parasols providing a striking contrast against the lush green grass of the court. The umpire, standing at the ready, watches intently as Lawford and Renshaw engage in a fierce volley. The net separating the two players is taut with tension, as each player strives to gain the upper hand.
