Comments

The scene depicts a view of the 11th Hole called 'High' In (also referred to as the Eden hole) at The Old Course, St. Andrews from behind the tee box looking out towards the green.
A threesome of golfers are on the tee box
The 11th at the Old Course is a medium-length par three that plays over a section of the 7th fairway to a well-protected and elevated green. In front, the green is guarded by a deep pot bunker (Strath), and on the front and left, another deep bunker (Hill) awaits errant shots. The putting surface (a double green shared with the par-four 7th) slopes sharply from back to front. Behind the green is a steep drop-off down to the edge of the Eden River. There’s another bunker in play, the Cockleshell bunker, but only a very poor shot will find its way there (and heaven help those players).
Caddies at St. Andrews like to call the 11th hole the course’s most difficult par five :)

Artist Bio

Kenneth Reed, whose paintings have been commissioned by such golfing greats as Gary Player, Bob Charles, Greg Norman and Tom Weiskopt for their own homes, and whose clients include the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews and the United States Golf Association, is widely acclaimed as one of the international golf community's finest artists.
Since 1972 he has been creating the evocative paintings of golf course landscapes which have included such venues as Augusta, Pinehurst and Pebble Beach, and his paintings grace the walls of many historic clubhouses such as Sunningdale, Wentworth and Royal Troon.
A Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts since 1962, and for over 25 years pursuing an academic career in parallel with that in golf art, such was the demand for his services that in 1996 he dedicated his skills full time to interpreting golf's wonderful landscapes. The rest, as they say, is history; an appropriate expression, considering the historic role of the golf artist in capturing the essence of the game.
