EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting print of a game of badminton being played in a garden by women dressed in flimsy dresses. The delicate and graceful movements of the players are captured beautifully, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of the sport. With their fashionable short haircuts, known as the martyr or victim style, these women exude charm and poise as they engage in a friendly match.
In earlier times, badminton was played without rackets, using only hands to hit the shuttlecock in a version called Palm. However, as depicted in this illustration from 1817, players now use intricately decorated racquets made of gold and silk to add an extra touch of luxury to the game.
The artist Dominique Bosio has skillfully brought this scene to life with hand-colored engravings that highlight every detail of the players' attire and surroundings. This print is not just a depiction of a simple game but also a glimpse into the fashion and leisure activities enjoyed during that era.
Transport yourself back to a time when badminton was played amidst lush gardens and elegant gatherings with this print that captures both beauty and grace in every stroke.
