Golfing legend Bobby Jones didn't only demonstrate his incredible brilliance as the foremost amateur champion. As his amateur playing career came to a close, Mr. Jones settled in the Atlanta area and, along with a group of investors, purchased land in Augusta, Georgia, that would go on to become Augusta National Golf Club. Moreover, in 1934 he co-founded the "Augusta National Invitational", a tournament we all know today as The Masters.
Offered in this collection are artist Christopher "CR" Obetz's reimagination of four iconic images of Mr. Jones at Augusta National: two illustrations from Anthony Ravielli's collaboration with Mr. Jones and two photographs from the Jones family's private archive. The green and yellow color palate featured in these works accentuates Bobby Jones' iconic swing and love of the game, and evokes the unique sensations of April in Augusta.
As a golf historian and golf artist, CR creates the Bobby Jones: Masters Edition NFT collection to bring the beauty and history of the legacy of Bobby Jones into a new dimension. From those who enjoy the classical traditions of line art to modern collectors who enjoy bold colors and the use of technology in art, this collection shares in the rich history of Bobby Jones, The Masters, and Augusta National Golf Club.
This drop features four unique collectibles. Each one includes both the NFT and the corresponding original "CR" work on canvas from which it is inspired. Prices include framing and shipping of the works on canvas. Purchasers will be contacted via email to organize shipping of the physical works.
