EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas painting titled "Showing a Preference, 1860" artist John Callcott Horsley transports us to a picturesque English cornfield. The scene depicts two lovers taking a leisurely stroll, their emotions and dynamics subtly revealed through their body language and surroundings. The couple's affectionate gestures and tender gazes hint at the depth of their connection. A parasol shields them from the sun as they wander hand in hand, lost in each other's company. Yet, there is an undercurrent of jealousy present as well – perhaps one lover has shown favoritism towards the other, causing envy to bloom within. Horsley skillfully captures both the tranquility of nature and the complexity of human relationships in this intimate moment frozen in time. The vibrant colors of the cornfield contrast with the soft hues used for the figures, emphasizing their importance against nature's backdrop. "Showing a Preference" invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as love, flirtation, and devotion while immersing themselves in its idyllic setting. It serves as a reminder that even amidst vast fields or bustling cities, personal connections can be found and cherished. This exquisite painting from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate Horsley's mastery and transports us back to an era where romantic encounters unfolded amidst golden wheat fields – forever capturing our imagination with its timeless beauty.
