EDITORS COMMENTS
Cock and Hen with Chicks, Artist: Harry Rountree, Date: 1927 This charming and evocative image, captured by the skilled hand of British artist Harry Rountree in 1927, portrays the tender moments of a cock and hen with their newly hatched chicks in a quintessential farmyard setting. The sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene, illuminating the rich textures of the earth and the vibrant plumage of the proud rooster and his hen. The cock, with his distinctive red comb and wattles, stands proudly over his brood, his protective gaze fixed on the chicks as they peck at the ground for their first morsels. The hen, her feathers ruffled from the warmth of motherhood, nurtures her young ones, offering them comfort and sustenance. The chicks, still covered in downy feathers, scamper around their parents, their tiny beaks opening wide in anticipation of their next meal. The idyllic farmyard setting, complete with a rustic fence, lush greenery, and a cozy farmhouse in the background, adds to the sense of tranquility and contentment. The natural beauty of the scene is further enhanced by the use of soft, earthy tones and the meticulous attention to detail in the depiction of the birds and their surroundings. Harry Rountree's Cock and Hen with Chicks is a timeless reminder of the simple pleasures of rural life and the unbreakable bond between parents and their offspring. This print, with its enduring appeal and nostalgic charm, continues to resonate with audiences and remains a cherished piece of art and a testament to the enduring beauty of nature.
