EDITORS COMMENTS
"A Suggestion for a Cool Golf Course: Why not Play on the Mountain Tops? An Ideal Summer Golf Course, Imagined and Planned by W. Heath Robinson (1872-1944). This whimsical and imaginative caricature by British cartoonist, illustrator, and artist, W. Heath Robinson, depicts a fantastical golf course set atop a mountain range. Dated back to 1911, this playful illustration showcases Robinson's signature style of intricately elaborate machines designed to accomplish simple tasks. The scene presents a breathtaking panorama of mountains, with golfers teeing off from precarious cliff edges, their balls soaring through the air towards green fairways nestled in the valleys below. A series of fantastical contraptions are scattered throughout the course, including a pair of oversized tweezers to pluck golf balls from the sky, a giant slingshot to propel players up steep inclines, and a network of ziplines and pulleys to transport clubs and equipment. Robinson's witty and humorous take on the sport of golf captures the spirit of adventure and the allure of escaping the mundane. The illustration, titled "Bogey 999," invites us to imagine a summer golfing experience unlike any other, where the challenges of the game are amplified by the thrill of playing atop the world. As a leading figure in the Edwardian era, Robinson's work showcases the unique blend of humor and ingenuity that defined the 1910s. This caricature is a testament to his artistic vision and his ability to bring whimsy and delight to everyday life."
