EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled 'Farmhouse, Hartley,' showcases the charm and beauty of rural life in Hartley, a picturesque village located in New South Wales, Australia, circa 1922. The image, created by renowned Australian painter and etcher, George Ure Smith, exhibited at the Australian Painter Etchers Society in June, offers a glimpse into the past with its intricate details and nuanced shading. The farmhouse, with its distinctive side buttresses, exudes a sense of history and stability, while the adjoining fence adds a touch of order and security to the scene. The lush, green landscape surrounding the farmhouse further emphasizes the idyllic setting, inviting the viewer to imagine the simple pleasures of country living. Hartley, located approximately 150 kilometers northwest of Sydney, was a thriving farming community during the early 20th century. The village, nestled in the rolling hills of the Cudgegong Valley, was known for its fertile soil and abundant water sources, making it an ideal location for agriculture and livestock farming. George Ure Smith's etching is a testament to the enduring appeal of rural life and the beauty of the Australian countryside. His skillful use of line, tone, and texture brings the farmhouse and its surroundings to life, transporting the viewer to a simpler time and place.
