Editors note – We pulled this story out the vault because yesterday the first two in our tennis collection arrived !

We looked at over 200 of them before we made our choice and we would have bought every single one of them if we could – they are just that magnificent. (LJ)

Contrary to popular belief, Melle sees each court unique in their own right. Each tennis court holds and tells a story through colors and overall atmosphere. Check out his work on Instagram: @mvg.art
