EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print by British artists Richard Wilson and Thomas Morro showcases the picturesque beauty of rural life during the Romantic Era. The recto, titled "Landscape with Woman and Cows," depicts a serene pastoral scene with a woman in traditional attire, gazing out at a tranquil landscape dotted with grazing cows and quaint farmhouses. The rolling hills, winding paths, and rustic buildings evoke a sense of peace and simplicity. On the verso, Morro's sketch, "Sketch of a Landscape," reveals the artistic process behind the finished piece. The black chalk drawing, heightened with white chalk on blue laid paper, offers a glimpse into the artist's mind as he captures the essence of the landscape. The sketch's loose, expressive lines and raw texture contrast sharply with the finished print, highlighting the intricacy and skill involved in the final product. Richard Wilson (1713-1782) was a renowned British landscape painter, known for his dramatic and atmospheric landscapes. Thomas Morro (1740-1807), a skilled draftsman and engraver, collaborated with Wilson on several projects, including this print. The pair's artistic partnership showcases the interplay between painting and printmaking during the Romantic Era, as well as the enduring appeal of rural life and landscapes in British art. This print, with its beautiful imagery and historical significance, is a must-see addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the past and the artistic process. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this rare and captivating piece in its impressive collection of prints and drawings.
