For some, the name Tom Bowling may conjure up a scene from the old sea shanty and the death of a sailor lad. Vyse however, takes the opportunity to make a pun of the name, and instead of a sailor, he presents a figure of an unknown subject when playing a game of bowls. The composition encapsulates the spirit of this…
