EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "A Game of Golf," is a beautiful representation of the sporting spirit and camaraderie between a golfer and his lady, as depicted in an advertisement for the Girls Own Paper around the turn of the twentieth century. The artist behind this masterpiece is Fred Pegram, known for his skillful rendition of outdoor scenes and athletic activities. Circa 1907, this photograph captures the essence of the game, with the golfer in a focused stance, readying his next shot, while his lady companion deftly hits his ball out of the rough with an elegant swing. The verdant landscape, dotted with trees and flowers, serves as the picturesque backdrop for their shared enjoyment of golf. The Girls Own Paper, a popular publication for young women during this era, likely featured this advertisement to encourage its readership to engage in the sport and embrace the active, independent lifestyle. The image embodies the spirit of the time, where women were increasingly participating in sports and outdoor activities, breaking free from traditional gender roles. Fred Pegram's artistry shines through in the intricate details of the scene, from the textured golf balls and clubs to the delicate folds of the ladies' clothing. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of golf but also a window into the social and cultural landscape of the early 1900s. A true treasure for golf enthusiasts and historians alike, this image is a must-have for any collection.
