EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1911, captures a memorable moment in the history of golf as James Braid, one of the greatest figures in the sport, stands at the entrance of the elegant Archerfield House. Accompanying him are Sir George Riddell, Mr. Watt, and the Asquith family: Mrs. Asquith, Miss Elizabeth Asquith, Miss Elisabeth Asquith, and Master Anthony Asquith. James Braid, a Scottish professional golfer, is renowned for his exceptional skills and numerous victories. His dominance in the game during the late 19th and early 20th centuries earned him the nickname "The Greatest Golf Professional Who Ever Lived." Here, he exudes confidence and charm as he greets his esteemed companions at the grand entrance of Archerfield House. Sir George Riddell, an influential figure in Scottish golf, is seen in the background, engaging in conversation with Mr. Watt. The Asquith family, gracious hosts, warmly welcome their esteemed guest and his companion. Miss Elizabeth Asquith and Miss Elisabeth Asquith, dressed in elegant attire, smile and pose for the camera with their father and Braid. Master Anthony Asquith, with a curious expression, stands next to his mother, adding a playful touch to the image. Archerfield House, a magnificent mansion located in East Lothian, Scotland, has been a popular destination for golfers and aristocrats alike since the late 1800s. This photograph captures a moment of camaraderie and elegance, showcasing the rich history and tradition of golf in Scotland.
