The surgeon-captain William Inglis on the links at Leith, club in hand, the Company’s procession behind him. Painted when the written rules were younger than the sitter; the game’s institutions, in oil. The procession in the background — golf already had ceremonies. Office hours, then the links. Some schedules are eternal.
