EDITORS COMMENTS
is a classic cartoon illustration from the September 1919 issue of The Illustrated London News, created by the renowned British satirical artist J.C. Robinson. The humorous image captures the essence of the frustration and determination experienced by golfers in their pursuit of the elusive lost ball. In the scene, a golfer is shown in the midst of a lush green golf course, his brow furrowed in concentration as he searches for a ball that has veered off course. The golfer's cart, adorned with the words "Patent Applied For," stands nearby, hinting at the inventive spirit that drives him to improve upon the game. The historical context of this cartoon is significant, as it reflects the era of innovation and progress that characterized the early 20th century. The golfer's quest for a lost ball is a metaphor for the human desire to discover new solutions and make life easier, as evidenced by the patent application sign on his cart. Robinson's masterful use of humor and satire adds depth to the image, making it a timeless piece of golfing history. The golfer's exaggerated expression of despair and the quirky details in the background, such as the ball perched precariously atop a tree branch, add to the overall charm and appeal of the artwork. This print, courtesy of the Estate of Mrs. J.C. Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/ILN/Mary Evans, is a must-have for golf enthusiasts, historians, and art collectors alike. The image offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of golf and the inventive spirit that continues to drive us forward. Whether displayed in a home office, a golf club, or a museum, this print is sure to inspire and delight all who view it.
