A Golfer's Irritation: A Scene from 'Three Little Maids,' a Musical by Paul Rubens This photograph captures the moment of tension between the distinguished gentleman golfer, Mr. G.P. Huntley, portraying the character Cheyne, and his seemingly nonchalant caddy, Mr. Carroll, in the role of Cupid, during the 1902 production of 'Three Little Maids' at the theatre. The historical musical, penned by Paul Rubens, showcases an array of humorous and lighthearted vignettes, with this scene highlighting the unexpected dynamics between the golfer and his caddy. Mr. Huntley, donning a monocle and trilby, is in the midst of taking a swing with his golf club, his focus intently fixed on the ball. However, his expression betrays a growing annoyance as Mr. Carroll, with a relaxed and carefree attitude, casually leans against a tree, seemingly more interested in the surroundings than the golfer's game. The golfer's crossed arms and stern gaze convey his mounting frustration with his caddy's lackadaisical approach to his duties. Despite the apparent annoyance, the photograph's composition is visually striking, with the contrasting poses and expressions of the two characters adding depth and intrigue to the scene. The use of natural lighting and the lush, green golf course setting further enhances the overall charm and allure of this historical moment in theatre and golfing history.
