The Prince's Voyage Home from India: life on board the Serapis: lawn tennis, from a sketch by an officer of the Serapis, 1876. '''Lawn tennis" was played by his Royal Highness [future King Edward VII] on the poop-deck, where a "court" was marked out for the game, while the balls were prevented, in a measure, from going overboard by the awning or curtain above the taffrail'. In the foreground a crew member plays with one of the animals the Prince of Wales collected in India. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
