This is a signed, first edition color photolithograph by Cecil Aldin of the English golf course Sunningdale. The photolithograph depicts golfers on Sunnigdale's fourth green. Sunningdale Golf Club, in Berkshire, England, was founded in 1900 and has two eighteen hole golf courses: the Old Course, designed by Willie Park Jr., and the New Course, designed by Harry Colt, which opened in 1923.

Aldin was the Master of the South Berkshire Hunt and was elected a member of the Royal Society of British Artists in 1898.
