EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "July (Reaping) (wash drawing)" by Dante Gabriel Charles Rossetti, transports us to a scene of agricultural labor in the summer heat. Measuring 24.1x11.4 cm, this intimate artwork captures the essence of July's reaping season. Intriguingly inscribed with the word "July" beneath the mount, this wash drawing showcases a division between two tiles, accompanied by a sketch for legs. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts a farmer wielding his sickle amidst an abundant wheat field. The central figure exudes determination and strength as he carries out his task of harvesting crops. His weathered face tells tales of hard work and resilience in the face of nature's challenges. Notably depicted alongside him are flasks that hint at his thirst from hours spent under the scorching sun. This subtle touch adds depth to the narrative, reminding us of the physical demands placed upon those who work tirelessly on our farms. With its masterful technique and evocative subject matter, this painting serves as a poignant tribute to farmers around the world who dedicate their lives to feeding communities and sustaining livelihoods. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of both the beauty found within rural landscapes and our collective reliance on those who till its soil.
