EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nunnery Cumberland August 20,1786" showcases the artistic brilliance of Joseph Farington, a leading landscape draftsman from Lancashire, Britain. Trained under Richard Wilson and later becoming a mature artist himself, Farington's talent shines through in this exquisite piece. The gray wash and graphite medium used in this artwork add depth and texture to the scene. With delicate pen strokes and sepia ink accents, Farington masterfully captures the essence of Nunnery in Cumberland on that summer day in 1786. Farington was known for his extensive travels across Britain during summers, meticulously sketching various landscapes. His work formed the basis for several aquatint series, including stunning views of lakes in Westmorland in 1789 and scenes along the River Thames between 1794-1796. Not only did Farington contribute significantly to British art history with his remarkable drawings but he also played a crucial role in shaping the taste for picturesque landscapes. This particular artwork exemplifies his ability to evoke emotions through meticulous attention to detail and composition. As part of Liszt Collection's vast repertoire of historical prints, this print serves as a testament to Joseph Farington's extraordinary talent as well as an important piece that should not be overlooked by art enthusiasts seeking profound glimpses into Britain's natural beauty during the late eighteenth century.
