The Isle of Bute has three golf courses: Bute with its 9 holes and views of Arran, Port Bannatyne with 13 holes, and the 18-hole course at Rothesay.
James captured this image close to the 12th green one evening whilst playing Rothesay, with the sun setting in the distance and colouring the surroundings with warm hues. The course sits high on the hills of Bute and offers uninterrupted views north to Loch Striven and down into Rothesay Bay where the Cal Mac ferry can be seen shuttling cars and passengers to and from the mainland. A lucky glance over the shoulder on the walk to the next tee made for a memorable impression of the landscape with its imposing trees and silhouette of hills in the background.
THE PRINT
This signed print is one of a limited edition. It’s recorded on Hahnemühle stock via a large format mimeograph and generally referred to as Giclée prints of premium quality. The paper is white 100% a-cellulose with a distinct textured surface and the premium matt inkjet coating more than meets the highest industry standards vis-à-vis density, colour gamut, colour graduation and image sharpness, while preserving the extraordinary touch and feel of genuine art paper. The editions depicted on Iconic Reserve are not representative of scale and solely for the purpose of suggestive display.
