Most people know only
the Augusta of the Masters, with its vast crowds. Then the 12th
green, radiantly portrayed by Mark King, becomes the focus of world
attention as the heart of Amen Corner, the scene of so much drama.
King salutes the distinguished history of this gorgeous American
course, that has made the Masters the game's premiere golf spectacle.
Amen Corner is composed
of the second half of the 11th hole, the short 12th, and the first
half of the 13th hole. Each hole is named for one of the thousands
of blooms that had grown on this former flower plantation.
Mark King paints Amen
Corner in all its splendor, with a new vision, a masters' touch
and seemingly effortless control of his media. His inspired touch
resounds in a work in such perfect harmony that we remain fascinated,
and transfixed with admiration. |
