EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken at the Hotel Beau Site in Cannes during the Riviera tennis season of 1922, showcases an intriguing gathering of renowned personalities on the tennis courts. From left to right, we find Arthur Balfour, Mrs. Beamish, Suzanne Lenglen, and His Majesty King Gustav V of Sweden. Arthur Balfour, a British statesman and former Prime Minister, was a passionate tennis enthusiast and an active participant in the sport. Mrs. Beamish, whose identity remains undisclosed, is believed to have been a patron or guest of the Hotel Beau Site. The central figure of this image is Suzanne Lenglen, the French tennis legend, who dominated women's tennis in the early 1900s. Her exceptional skill and charisma earned her the nickname "La Divine," and she remains one of the most celebrated athletes in French sports history. The King of Sweden, Gustav V, is depicted in a relaxed yet focused stance, displaying his impressive tennis skills. Known for his love of sports, Gustav V was an accomplished athlete in his youth and continued to play tennis competitively well into his 80s. This photograph is a testament to the international appeal and social significance of tennis during the early 20th century, as well as the opportunity it provided for high-profile individuals to come together and share their passion for the game.
