EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Only a Shower, 1869" by George Heming Mason takes us back to a simpler time in the bucolic countryside. The oil on canvas painting, measuring 46x92 cm, is housed at the Manchester Art Gallery in the UK. In this enchanting landscape, we find ourselves amidst a dense forest of towering trees. Rain pours down from above, creating an ethereal scene that seems almost fantastical. A young girl seeks shelter beneath the canopy of old and wooded trees as she waits for the storm to pass. The pastoral setting evokes a sense of tranquility and peace, transporting us to an idyllic rural world untouched by modernity. In this idyll, we can imagine hearing the soft bleating of sheep nearby and envision a shepherd guiding them through these vast forest areas. Mason's masterful brushstrokes capture not only the beauty of nature but also its power. The raindrops falling from above are rendered with such detail that one can almost feel their cool touch on our skin. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded of the timeless connection between humans and nature. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of stormy weather or uncertainty, there is always solace to be found beneath nature's protective embrace.
