Wimbledon Tennis
Abstract tennis players playing.Like a smart athlete who wastes no energy, this design inviting the London public to travel by Underground to the Wimbledon tennis tournament uses the famous event's name as the net. ""Andrew-Porter"" was the signature of the joint studio of Sybil Andrews and Cyril Power, in which Power got the orders and Andrews created the designs. They had met at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art in London, where Power was a teacher and Andrews a pupil. Under the influence of Claude Flight, another teacher there, they adopted an avantgarde Futurist style whose hallmark was the depiction of movement and speed - certainly in evidence here.
