The Golfer, scene in a tavern with man playing kolven outside
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph print by Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn. This 17th-century artwork depicts a historical moment in the world of golf, showcasing the early origins of this beloved sport. In the image, we see a golfer seated inside a cozy tavern, taking a break from his game. Outside, another man can be seen engrossed in playing kolven, an early form of golf popular in the Netherlands during that time. The black and white illustration beautifully captures the essence of this historic moment. This lithograph print was featured as an illustration in "A History of Golf" written by Robert Browning and published in 1955. It serves as a visual representation of how golf has evolved over centuries and highlights its significance as one of the oldest recorded sports. The attention to detail showcased by Rembrandt's skillful hand brings life to this scene from centuries ago. The composition invites viewers to imagine themselves transported back to that era when men gathered at taverns for leisurely games like kolven. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded not only of golf's rich history but also its enduring appeal across generations. Whether played on lush courses or depicted through art forms like lithographs, golf continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide with its timeless charm and competitive spirit.
