EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Incidents of Hop-Gathering" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of agricultural workers during dinner time. The engraving, created by an English School artist and part of a private collection, was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on October 5th, 1867. The image showcases a shifting ground filled with hop pickers engrossed in their midday meal. These hardworking individuals are depicted amidst lush fields as they take a well-deserved break from their laborious tasks. Their attire and tools hint at their professions as they engage in the age-old tradition of hop gathering. The scene exudes both tranquility and camaraderie as these farmworkers come together to replenish their energy before continuing with their day's work. It serves as a testament to the resilience and dedication of those involved in agriculture during this period. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this historical snapshot through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic merit but also gain insight into an important aspect of rural life centuries ago. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the incidents that unfolded during hop-gathering season – a moment frozen forever within this remarkable piece of art.
