EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Long After, Corfe Castle, Dorset, 1894" transports us back to the serene countryside of England in the late 19th century. Painted by David Murray, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 180.3x269.2 cm and is currently housed at Nottingham City Museums and Galleries. The scene depicted showcases a vast sandy scrubland with sheep grazing peacefully in the foreground. Towering trees stand tall on the left side of the painting while sand dunes dotted with more sheep can be seen in the middle ground. A striking blue cart with red wheels catches our attention on the right side, accompanied by felled tree trunks nearby. However, it is undoubtedly the ruins of Corfe Castle that steal the show as they majestically rise from a hill in the background. The castle's weathered stones tell tales of history and evoke a sense of mystery and intrigue for those who gaze upon them. Beyond these ancient ruins lie rolling hills that stretch towards the distant coast visible on the horizon. Murray's meticulous brushstrokes beautifully capture both nature's tranquility and man-made remnants from centuries past. This painting serves as a timeless reminder of rural England's charm and its ability to transport us to another era through artistry alone.
