Ranging from classic Dutch paintings of the 17th century through the works of the specialist late 19th century painter Francis Powell Hopkins to pictures by present day artists like Britain's Arthur Weaver and the controversial American LeRoy Neiman, the collection also affords a visual history of golf and its development. Every form of art is represented: from an etching by Rembrandt to cartoons by Bateman and caricatures by Spy. Accompanying each picture is a brief description of the artist and his subject. Bringing together for the first time in one volume many of the most interesting examples of golfing art, this book will be treasured by every golf enthusiast and countless others.
