Circa 1890's C.E. Compton
North Berwick Painting
Some of the most sought-after pieces of golf memorabilia include late 19th
century and early 20th century artwork. High quality pieces of early golf
artwork are responsible for many golf auction record prices. Offered here is an
original circa 1890-1910 watercolor painting of North Berwick by Charles Edward
(C.E.) Compton.
Compton was a rather celebrated
landscape painter who wasn't all that well known for painting golf courses, but
did paint some in the late 1800's and early 1900's.
This original 110+ year old
watercolor painting is titled "Evening N'Berwick". The painting itself measures
14" x 8", and is framed to 19" x 12".
