EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegant and vivacious spirit of Phyllis Helen Satterthwaite, a renowned British tennis player, as she enjoys a leisurely day at the fashionable sunbathing resort of Eden Roc in Cap d'Antibes on the French Riviera. Dressed in the height of 1920s beach fashion, Satterthwaite dons a sleeveless jumper top and wide trousers in a sailor style, perfectly suited to the Mediterranean climate. The brimmed hat shields her from the sun's rays, adding an air of sophistication to her look. Born in 1886, Satterthwaite was an active tennis player from the early 1910s until the late 1930s. However, by the 1920s, she had made the French Riviera her permanent home and became a prominent member of high society. The glamour and allure of the Cote d'Azur drew many famous faces to its shores, and Satterthwaite was no exception. This photograph is a testament to Satterthwaite's effortless style and grace, both on and off the tennis court. Her radiant smile and relaxed demeanor exude a sense of joy and contentment as she soaks up the sun at Eden Roc. The stunning backdrop of the crystal-clear waters and lush greenery only serve to enhance the beauty of the scene. Phyllis Helen Satterthwaite's legacy as a tennis player and a society figure on the French Riviera continues to inspire and captivate audiences today. This photograph is a timeless reminder of a bygone era, when the French Riviera was a playground for the rich and famous, and tennis players like Satterthwaite were as much a part of the social scene as they were on the court.
