EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Golf at Blackheath" takes us back to the 19th century when this beloved sport was just beginning to gain popularity. The scene is set on a bright day at Blackheath, an iconic golf course in England. A group of well-dressed gentlemen can be seen engaged in a spirited game of golf, with their fore caddy attentively observing from the sidelines. The artist beautifully captures the excitement and intensity of the game as one player attempts to putt his ball into the hole while others eagerly watch. The lush green surroundings and meticulously maintained fairways provide a picturesque backdrop for this thrilling moment. However, it seems that not everything is going according to plan. One player's ball has gone missing, causing him frustration as he searches for it among the rough terrain. Another golfer finds himself facing a challenging bunker shot while his fellow players anxiously await his next move. This enchanting print offers us a glimpse into the early days of golf when it was still considered more of a parlour game than a professional sport. It reminds us of how far this beloved pastime has come and serves as a testament to its enduring appeal throughout history.
