EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait showcases Dorothea Douglass Lambert Chambers, a seven-time Wimbledon ladies singles champion, as she dedicates her time and energy to war work during World War I. The image was published in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News in 1917, capturing a poignant moment in the life of this remarkable sportswoman. Born in 1878, Dorothea Lambert Chambers made history on the tennis courts, winning her first Wimbledon title in 1903 and continuing her dominance until 1914. However, with the outbreak of war in 1914, she put down her tennis racket and answered the call to duty. After serving at Ealing Hospital, she transitioned to canteen work at the Little Theatre, providing essential support and morale boosting activities for the troops and civilians alike. The war years were a time of great change and sacrifice for Dorothea, as they were for countless other women across the world. This portrait serves as a testament to her resilience, adaptability, and unwavering commitment to serving her country and community during a time of crisis. The image, published in 1917, captures the spirit of the era – one of determination, courage, and selflessness – embodied in the person of this extraordinary tennis champion turned war worker.
