More about this artwork

The image you provided is indeed the cover illustration of "Collier's, The National Weekly" magazine, dated June 8, 1912, created by artist Edward Penfield. The artwork, titled "The First Tee," portrays a scene centered around the game of golf, capturing a moment of leisure in an elegantly simple yet expressive style characteristic of Penfield's work.In this scene, two figures are featured on what appears to be a golf course. The primary figure is a woman in the midst of her golf swing, depicted in a white dress which indicates the fashion of the early 20th century. She stands poised, with a focused expression, her hair clasped up and shielded from the sun by a soft cap. She holds her position on the tee, seemingly at the peak of her backswing, her right hand grasping the club over her shoulder.Behind the woman stands a young caddy, a boy wearing a cap and carrying a golf bag. The boy, his attention directed towards the woman, appears attentive and ready to assist.The backdrop includes lavishly illustrated trees and shrubery, suggesting an exclusive or well-maintained golf course. The perspective and coloring provide depth and a touch of scenic beauty to the scene.

Edward Penfield (1866-1925) was an influential American poster artist, considered as the father of the American poster movement. He was employed as an art editor for Harper’s Weekly, Monthly, and Harper’s Bazaar, where he made posters advertising each issue of the magazine for over seven years. His art was avant-garde with less concern for the dramatic curving lines of Art Nouveau, inspired by Japanese ukiyo-e block prints, figure drawings by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, color lithographies by Jules Chéret, and other contemporary artists. He created simplified scenes of daily life in saturated colors, including horses, cats, sports, and women’s fashion.
