This series of
golf pictures are by famed American illustrator,
Arthur Burdett Frost (A.B. Frost). Frost created thousands of
illustrations for Harper's Weekly, Scribner's and Life magazines during the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries. He completed hundreds of watercolors and oils and is
probably best known for his hunting, shooting and golf prints
that capture the drama of sport in realistically detailed
settings. These sports prints are about the greatest game ever
played and are from the Scribner's 1895 article, Golf, by Henry E. Howland.
