EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "PD. 2-1967 Haymaking at Dolwyddelan below Moel Siabod, North Wales" transports us to a picturesque scene in the late 18th century. Painted by Paul Sandby, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of rural life in North Wales. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Snowdonia, we see a serene landscape dotted with haystacks and bathed in warm summer light. The artist's meticulous use of watercolor and gouache brings out the vibrant colors of nature, making every detail come alive. The focal point of the painting is a group of farmers diligently engaged in haymaking. With their scythes and pitchforks, they work harmoniously to gather and stack hay for winter storage. This timeless image reminds us of the importance of hard work and cooperation within agricultural communities. Moel Siabod looms majestically in the background, its snow-capped peak contrasting with the lush greenery below. The mountain serves as a reminder that even amidst laborious tasks, there is always beauty to be found in nature's grandeur. Displayed at Fitzwilliam Museum at University of Cambridge, this remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both artistic skill and historical significance. It serves as a testament to Sandby's talent for capturing not only landscapes but also human activity within them. With its rich Welsh heritage and stunning depiction of rural life, this painting continues to captivate audiences today as it did over two centuries
