A Pair of Sepia Toned Gelatin Silver Prints Depicting Early Golfing Scenes
This pair of sepia-toned gelatin silver photographs depicts two historical scenes from the early development of golf. The first image captures a group of golfers on a putting green situated before a large, multi-story shingle-style clubhouse. The figures include several men in period attire, such as suits and hats, and a woman dressed in a long white skirt and wide-brimmed hat consistent with late 19th or early 20th-century fashion. The second image provides a panoramic landscape view of a golf course from a tee box elevated on a rocky outcrop. In the mid-ground, a valley contains a body of water and a railroad line running parallel to the fairway, set against a densely wooded horizon. Both images are modern restrike prints produced on heavy, unmounted white photographic paper with wide, clean margins. There are no signatures, studio stamps, edition numbers, or manufacturer marks visible on the front or the reverse of either sheet.
