EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Morland's masterpiece, "Country Folk By An Inn Fire" painted in 1796. The oil on canvas painting measures 35.6x30.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The scene depicted transports us to a cozy countryside inn, where a group of rural folk gather around a warm fireside. The flickering flames cast an enchanting glow on their faces as they engage in various activities typical of country life. In the foreground, we see a contented dog resting by the fire, enjoying the warmth just like its human companions. Smoke gently rises from pipes held by some of the men, adding to the rustic atmosphere of the setting. One man stands out with his walking stick or cane, suggesting authority or perhaps wisdom among this group of peasants. His presence adds depth and character to Morland's composition. Morland's attention to detail is evident throughout this painting - from the intricate brushstrokes that bring life to each figure, to the carefully rendered fireplace and surrounding interior elements. Through this print captured by eChristies Images and made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, viewers can appreciate Morland's skillful portrayal of everyday rural life during this period in English history.
