EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment of leisure and camaraderie aboard the HMS Renown in 1927. The image, featured in the Coronation Souvenir Book of 1937 edited by Gordon Beckles, offers a glimpse into a bygone era. In this snapshot from history, we witness an intense game of deck tennis being played on board the ship's exterior. Two pairs engage in friendly competition as they navigate their way through strategic shots and swift movements. The participants exude both determination and joy as they immerse themselves in this popular pastime. Among them is Lady Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, later known as Queen Elizabeth, the beloved consort to King George VI. Her presence adds an air of elegance to the scene while highlighting her active involvement in recreational activities alongside her fellow passengers. The image not only showcases the spirit of partnership between men and women but also reflects a sense of unity among all those on board. It serves as a reminder that even amidst royal duties and responsibilities, individuals find solace and enjoyment through shared experiences. As we delve into this piece of artistry captured by Albert Frederick Arthur George Saxe Coburg Gotha, commonly known as Duke of York or King George VI himself, we are transported back to an era where simple pleasures brought people together regardless of their social status or background. This photograph stands testament to timeless values such as friendship, teamwork, and leisurely pursuits that transcend time itself.
