EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, hailing from the late 1890s, showcases a collection of golf enthusiasts from Christchurch and Dunedin, New Zealand, as they proudly display their clubs against the picturesque backdrop of the lush, green landscape. The image features a mix of both the Christchurch and Dunedin Ladies Golf teams, as well as individual male golfers, all dressed in the fashionable attire of the Victorian era. The serene setting, with its rolling hills and clear blue sky, perfectly encapsulates the essence of golf as a popular outdoor sport during this time. The ladies, dressed in long skirts and blouses, and the gentlemen in tailored trousers and collared shirts, exude an air of sophistication and elegance. Each golfer holds their club with a sense of pride and determination, reflecting their passion for the game. Golf had already gained significant popularity in New Zealand by the late 1890s, with numerous clubs and tournaments established throughout the country. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of golf in New Zealand during the Victorian era. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of golf as a beloved outdoor sport and a cherished pastime that continues to bring people together, both in New Zealand and around the world.
