Description from the seller

Description of the sheet:
This is a vintage collage-style illustration with a golf theme, done in watercolor with a nostalgic air of the early 20th century.
Central element:
• An elegant woman dressed in classic feminine golf attire: fitted red jacket, long plaid tweed skirt, white high-collared blouse, straw hat with a red feather and white gloves. She stands on the edge, calmly resting on her golf club, looking toward the course.
Highlighted elements around:
• Large oval gold medallion with the inscription “THE GOLFING UNION OF IRELAND,” which includes an Irish harp in the center and heraldic crests.
• Official scorecard (“OFFICIAL SCORE”) with boxes for holes, yards and par.
• Beige golf bag full of clubs.
• Blue flag of hole 18.
• Ornately silver trophy to the right.
• Silhouettes of other golfers in the background by the water (one mid-swing).
• Several golf balls of different sizes and colors, tees and accessories scattered.
Background and composition:
• The setting is a golf course beside a body of water, with lush trees and vegetation.
• The entire illustration is framed by a diamond argyle pattern in orange, green, gray and brown tones.
• At the bottom appear typical details: another score card, a tweed hat, classic two-tone golf shoes and a ball on a tee.
The print conveys elegance, sportiness and the refined spirit of golf from the golden era, with rich detail and vibrant colors.
