EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and whimsical 19th-century lithograph titled "A farmer went trotting upon his gray mare" we are transported to a bygone era filled with innocence and adventure. The print captures a heartwarming scene of a farmer riding his trusty gray mare, with his rosy and fair daughter seated behind him. As they journey together, the world seems full of possibilities. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when a raven's cry startles them all. In an unfortunate twist of events, the mare stumbles and breaks her knees while the farmer suffers a blow to his crown. This delightful illustration is taken from Routledges Nursery Book, published in 1865 by George Routledge & Sons. The image evokes nostalgia for simpler times when nursery rhymes were cherished bedtime stories for children. It reminds us of the joys and challenges that come with life's unpredictable moments. The vibrant colors used in this color lithograph bring out every detail - from the expressions on their faces to the texture of their clothing. This artwork not only showcases English rural life but also serves as a reminder that even amidst mishaps, there is beauty in resilience and togetherness. A true treasure from our past brought back to life through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection.
