The artwork showcases a couple of skilled golfers preparing to tee-off on a picturesque golf course, while their caddy boys patiently wait behind them. The engraving by C. A. Doyle beautifully captures the essence of this recreational pursuit that has stood the test of time. The landscape format emphasizes the vastness and tranquility of the surroundings, transporting us to an idyllic setting where gentlemen would gather for leisurely rounds. In this historical moment frozen in time, we witness not only male camaraderie but also hints at gender dynamics as women were gradually becoming more involved in sports like golf. The golfer's equipment is meticulously depicted, showcasing both its simplicity and elegance.
