EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time on Tooting Bec Common, London, during the years 1926-1927. The image is taken from the publication "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock and published by Amalgamated Press in 1926-1927. In this snapshot of British life, we see a group of women enjoying a game of golf amidst the lush greenery of the common. Despite the rainy weather, they stand undeterred with umbrellas in hand, showcasing their determination and love for this sport. A lady spectator can be seen nearby, engrossed in watching their swings as she takes shelter under a tree. The setting itself exudes tranquility and natural beauty; tall trees surround the players, providing shade and adding to the serene atmosphere. The contrast between nature's elements and urban surroundings is evident as glimpses of city buildings peek through in the distance. This photograph not only captures an era but also reflects upon societal changes that allowed women to participate more freely in sports like golf. It serves as a testament to their resilience and passion for breaking barriers during a time when gender roles were more rigidly defined. Preserved through time by The Print Collector, this monochrome photogravure offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century Britain - its people, culture, leisure activities - all frozen within this single frame on Tooting Bec Common.
