Feeding Chickens, c1788 - A Glimpse into 18th Century British Family Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a serene moment in the countryside during the late 18th century. The artwork, created by Peltro William Tomkins and inspired by James Russell's original work, showcases an idyllic scene of a family engaging in their daily chores. In this charming portrait, we see a young girl surrounded by her feathered companions. With a basket full of feed in hand, she takes on the responsibility of feeding the chickens under the watchful eyes of her sister and parents. The warm brown hues add depth to this colorized image from The Connoisseur Volume XLII. The simplicity and innocence portrayed here evoke feelings of nostalgia for a time when life revolved around nature's rhythms. Barefoot and carefree, these girls embody the concept of childhood joy amidst their feathered friends. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that tending to animals was not just a chore but also an opportunity for families to bond with nature. This scene reminds us that even in bustling 18th-century Britain, people found solace outdoors while embracing their roles as caretakers. Preserved through time by The Print Collector and shared with us today through Heritage Images, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical significance. It serves as a gentle reminder that our connection with nature has always been essential throughout centuries past – an enduring testament
