''Memories'' (also known as ''Lawn Tennis'') is an 1889 painting by Belgian symbolist artist Fernand Khnopff. The work is a quintessential example of Khnopff's enigmatic and dreamlike style, which often explores themes of memory, desire, and the unconscious. The painting features two figures, a standing woman and a seated child, in a sparse, undefined landscape that suggests a dream or memory rather than a specific location. The woman, clad in a white gown, gazes into the distance with a contemplative expression, while the child, dressed in a blue outfit, looks directly at the viewer, creating an unsettling sense of engagement.

Khnopff's technique in ''Memories'' is characterized by a meticulous and smooth finish, with a muted color palette that enhances the painting's ethereal and introspective mood. The composition's stillness and the figures' introspective poses contribute to the work's meditative quality. Khnopff often drew inspiration from his sister Marguerite, who is believed to have served as the model for the woman in this painting, further imbuing the piece with personal significance and a sense of enigmatic intimacy.

As a leading figure of the Symbolist movement, Khnopff's work, including ''Memories'', is noted for its influence on later artists and its contribution to the development of early modernist aesthetics. The painting is emblematic of the Symbolists' rejection of naturalism and their embrace of symbolism and allegory to evoke emotional resonance and to delve into the psyche. ''Memories'' is held in high regard for its ability to capture the elusive nature of memory and the passage of time, themes that are recurrent in Khnopff's oeuvre.

''Memories'' is part of the collection at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels, where it continues to be studied and admired for its technical mastery and its evocative, poetic qualities.
