EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Dawn of Golf" transports us back to a whimsical moment in time, where prehistoric men are depicted engaging in the early stages of the beloved sport. The satirical drawing from The Boy's Own Annual (London, 1921-1922) offers a humorous take on the origins of golf, showing cavemen using primitive tools as clubs and a round object as their ball. As the sun rises in the background, casting a warm glow over the scene, we can't help but chuckle at the absurdity of it all. The juxtaposition of ancient man and modern-day leisure activity creates a sense of joy and wonderment. The detail in this engraving is truly remarkable, capturing every nuance of expression on the faces of these prehistoric golfers. From their determined stances to their gleeful smiles, we can almost feel the excitement they must have felt at inventing such an entertaining game. Overall, "The Dawn of Golf" is not just a piece of art; it's a reminder that pleasure and fun have been integral parts of human existence since time immemorial. So next time you tee off at your local course, remember those pioneering cavemen who first swung their clubs amidst volcanic vents and megalithic landscapes - they paved the way for our love affair with this timeless sport.
