Description
Photograph of a women's doubles tennis match, ca.1930. Four women stand on opposite sides of the net as a crowd of spectators looks on. To the right, a woman crouches, preparing to hit a ball in mid-air. To her right, her partner stands closer to the net. On the other side, another two women stand in separate quadrants waiting to play. The stands are full of people, some of which are standing at the back. Behind the court lie several houses surrounded by trees. A mountainous area can be made out in the distance.
