EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Children Bird Nesting, 1789" takes us back to a simpler time when nature was the ultimate playground. The artist, William Ward, skillfully captures a scene inspired by George Morland's original work from the late 18th century. Set in a lush woodland, we see a group of children engrossed in their adventure. The composition is filled with vibrant colors and textures that bring this idyllic setting to life. Standing beneath an ancient tree, the children are surrounded by yellow plants and foliage that create a sense of harmony with their surroundings. With joyous expressions on their faces, both boys and girls eagerly collect eggs from bird nests hidden among the branches. This image beautifully portrays the innocence and curiosity of childhood as these young explorers engage with nature's wonders. It reminds us of simpler times when spending hours outdoors was commonplace for children. Originally published in The Connoisseur Volume L in 1918, this mezzotint print has been cherished over generations for its timeless beauty. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be transported back to an era where catching birds' eggs or splashing in puddles were treasured pastimes. Through this remarkable artwork by William Ward after George Morland's vision, we are reminded of our deep connection to nature and how it nurtures our imagination even centuries later.
