The Hôtel Baudy was the epicenter of artistic life in Giverny, providing lodging and services to accommodate an everchanging colony population (over 700 names are listed in the hotel's registry over a 12 year period). Facilities soon included recreational ones as represented in Karl Anderson's sun-drenched canvas. At the hotel, the newly-installed tennis courts offered a popular source of distraction and entertainment for artists-replaced by ice skating and sledding during the winter months-and a perfect subject for practicing art en plein air.
