EDITORS COMMENTS
an exquisite 18th-century color stipple engraving by the Italian artist Giovanni Vendramini, published in 1795, offers a charming depiction of rural life and the simple pleasures of the English countryside. The scene unfolds on a quiet country road, where a horse-drawn vehicle makes its way through the landscape, its passengers seemingly unaware of the vibrant activity taking place at the roadside. At the edge of the road, a young girl and her dog eagerly gather peas from a basket, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. A boy, perhaps her brother, stands nearby, holding a horse reins and watching over their horse and cart. A man, possibly the children's father, engages in a lively exchange with a street vendor, his attention divided between the pea sale and the horse. The intricately detailed engraving showcases the skillful use of stipple technique, with tiny dots of ink creating a rich, textured effect that brings the scene to life. The vibrant colors of the peas, the children's clothing, and the horse's coat add to the overall sense of vitality and energy. This work of art, titled "Fresh Gathered Peas, Young Hastings," is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the daily life and occupations of the time. It is a must-see addition to any art center or gallery, inviting viewers to explore the world of Francis Wheatley, Giovanni Vendramini, and the Cries of London during the historic eighteenth century.
