EDITORS COMMENTS
An Enchanting Encounter: Anthony Wilding and the Lipthay Boys in Lovrin, Hungary (1907) This evocative portrait captures a moment of camaraderie between Captain Anthony Frederick Wilding, the renowned New Zealand tennis champion, and Bela and Anta Lipthay, the sons of Baron Lipthay, at their estate in Lovrin, Hungary. The year was 1907, and Wilding had been acting as their tutor for six months. Wilding, a four-time Wimbledon champion (1910, 1911, 1912, and 1913), was at the height of his tennis career when he accepted the position in Hungary. The opportunity to teach the Lipthay boys not only provided him with an income but also allowed him to immerse himself in European culture and refine his game. Bela and Anta, dressed in their formal attire, gaze intently at Wilding, who returns their gaze with a confident smile. The boys' attire, along with the opulent surroundings, hint at the aristocratic lifestyle they led. The image exudes an air of sophistication and elegance, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the personal life of one of New Zealand's most celebrated sports figures. It also serves as a reminder of the global connections that shaped the tennis world during the early 20th century, as players like Wilding traveled the world to share their skills and knowledge with aspiring athletes. As we admire this image, we are reminded of the rich history of tennis and the enduring impact of its champions, who continue to inspire and captivate us with their stories.
