A Day's Golfing, by a Canine Enthusiast
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the 19th century. Created by William Ralston in 1891, this artwork showcases the artist's skillful interpretation of anthropomorphic dogs engaging in a game of golf. The print captures the essence of both sport and leisure as these steady canine players navigate their way through lush green fairways. Intriguingly, Ralston portrays the dogs with human-like qualities, adding an element of whimsy to the scene. One dog stands proudly over a deep hole where his ball has landed after a fine shot, while another dog tees off with precision and determination. The attention to detail is remarkable; you can almost feel the excitement in the air as these canine enthusiasts enjoy their day on the course. This engraving was originally created for publication in The Graphic on March 21st, 1891. It offers us a glimpse into not only popular sports during that era but also into society's fascination with anthropomorphism and parlour games. As we admire "A Day's Golfing" we are transported to a time when golf was still emerging as one of society's favorite pastimes. This delightful artwork serves as a reminder that even our furry friends can find joy and camaraderie on the greens.
