EDITORS COMMENTS
A Moment of Respite at the Tennis Pavilion in Moffat, Scotland, circa 1911 This charming photograph captures a moment of relaxation and camaraderie at the tennis pavilion in the picturesque town of Moffat, Scotland. Three individuals take shelter from the sun inside the pavilion, their comfortable seating and leisurely postures suggesting a well-earned rest after an invigorating game on the nearby courts. The serene atmosphere is further emphasized by the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees and casting a warm glow over the scene. In the foreground, a friend of the photographer playfully makes a visible reaction to trying out some of the local mineral spring water from Moffat Hydro. His humorous expression and exaggerated gesture add a touch of levity to the image, making it a delightful snapshot of a bygone era. The tennis pavilion, with its classic design and timeless charm, stands as a testament to the rich history and enduring appeal of the sport in Scotland. The photograph, taken in the early 1910s, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures of life – a refreshing drink, a moment of rest, and the company of friends. The image is a beautiful reminder of the timeless allure of tennis and the scenic beauty of Moffat, a town that continues to attract visitors from around the world.
