This two dimensional weathervane of a female tennis player is above the Kennebunk River Club in Kennebunkport, Maine. This private sports club was founded in 1889 by thirteen wealthy summer families as a boating and canoe facility. The club has expanded their activities and membership over the years, and in 1975 the building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
