Swan with Two Cygnets,
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Dorothy Rees, 1936 This enchanting print captures the grace and tenderness of a mother swan as she gently carries her two newborn cygnets on her back, gliding effortlessly along the tranquil river. The scene is brought to life by the skilled brushstrokes of Dorothy Rees, a renowned British artist, in this charming work created in 1936. The mother swan's elegant neck curves gracefully as she supports her offspring, while her regal head turns to keep a watchful eye on her surroundings. The cygnets, still covered in downy feathers, cling tightly to their mother, their small forms a testament to her unwavering protection and love. The water's surface reflects the vibrant colors of the surrounding landscape, with lush greenery and blooming flowers lining the banks. The gentle ripples created by the swan's movements add a sense of calm and serenity to the scene, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate the beauty of nature. Dorothy Rees' masterful use of color and composition perfectly captures the delicate balance between mother and offspring, as well as the harmony between the natural world and the passage of time. This timeless image serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures and joys to be found in the natural world and the enduring bond between a mother and her young.
