EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the vibrant spirit of a traditional English fair and festival in the early 19th century. Painted by William Collins, this oil on canvas print showcases a lively scene filled with joyous celebrations and timeless customs. The focal point of the artwork is a young may queen, adorned in an exquisite costume fit for royalty. She stands proudly amidst the bustling crowd, surrounded by revelers enjoying themselves at a local pub. The atmosphere is electric as people raise their glasses to toast to May Day merriment. In one corner of the painting, we see a crying baby being comforted by its mother while nearby children fly colorful kites against the backdrop of clear blue skies. This juxtaposition highlights both the innocence and excitement that permeate this festive occasion. Collins' attention to detail brings every element to life - from intricate costumes and expressions on faces to architectural features that transport us back in time. The artist's skillful brushwork captures not only the physicality but also the essence of this cherished tradition. This particular print has been lovingly conserved over time, preserving its original beauty for generations to come. It now resides at Yale Center for British Art in New Haven, USA thanks to Jean M. Harford's generous gift. "May Day, c. 1811-12" serves as an enchanting window into history, reminding us of our rich cultural heritage and celebrating the enduring traditions that bring communities together year after year.
