EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Ping-Pong" takes us back in time to the year 1901. The image captures a lively scene of a Ping-Pong match, an early form of table tennis that gained popularity during this era. The print showcases the work of Lucien Davis, a renowned artist from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With intricate detail and skillful execution, Davis brings to life the excitement and energy surrounding this emerging sport. In the foreground, we see two players engaged in an intense rally across a wooden table. Their focused expressions reveal their determination to outwit each other with swift moves and precise shots. Surrounding them is a crowd of spectators dressed in fashionable clothing typical of the Edwardian period. The illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on June 15th, 1901 - a testament to its significance as both entertainment and news at that time. This piece provides us with not only an artistic representation but also serves as historical documentation of popular pastimes during this era. As we gaze upon this vintage engraving today, it reminds us of how sports have evolved over time while still retaining their ability to captivate audiences worldwide. It is through such timeless artworks that we can appreciate both our shared history and our enduring love for games that bring people together.
