Item Description

Vintage lithograph after a fine hand coloured aquatint showing a finely dressed golfer and his caddy on the old Blackheath course. The original piece was based on a painting by Lemuel Francis Abbott (English, 1760/61-1803) and was issued by Valentine Green as a Mezzotint print, 1790. It is one of the first golf portraits ever published, and the Blackheath golf course depicted in the print was a primitive five-to-seven-hole course. As shown with the title in center. The subject of the painting is William Innes, a member of the Royal Blackheath Golfers and local merchant. Posed holding the golf club over his shoulder in mid step with his caddy behind him. The publisher's details and dedication are inscribed in plate at the lower edge. Displayed within a 2-toned wooden frame with a linen taupe hued mat. Ready to hang.
