EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Langollen, from 'Remarks on a Tour to North and South Wales, in the year 1797'" takes us back to the picturesque countryside of 18th century Wales. Created by John Hill, this piece showcases the stunning beauty of Llangollen in Denbighshire, with its iconic River Dee flowing gracefully through the landscape. The etching and aquatint technique used by Thomas Rowlandson skillfully captures every intricate detail of this enchanting scene. The image features a charming bridge spanning over the river, connecting both sides of the country. The rolling hills in the background add depth to this idyllic location. As we gaze upon this historic artwork housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back in time to an era when travel was an adventurous journey through unexplored territories. This print serves as a visual documentation of Hill's tour across North and South Wales during his visit in 1797. Not only does it showcase the geographical features that make Langollen so unique but also highlights its significance as a popular tourist destination even centuries ago. It is evident that Hill was captivated by the natural beauty surrounding him and wanted to share his experience with others through his artistic expression. This remarkable piece allows us to appreciate not only Welsh heritage but also British history as it provides insight into life during Georgian times. A true gem within The Met's collection!
