EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures Samuel Palmer's exquisite "Illustration to Miltons Lycidas" a watercolor and gouache masterpiece on paper. Measuring 39.4x58.4 cm, this artwork is part of a private collection, showcasing the talent and vision of the renowned English artist. In this enchanting scene, we are transported to a rural landscape at dusk, where laborers diligently plow the furrowed land under the warm glow of sunset. The presence of an ox symbolizes agricultural strength and resilience while adding a touch of pastoral elegance to the composition. A magnificent waterfall cascades in the background, its gentle roar harmonizing with nature's symphony. A watermill stands tall nearby, reminding us of mankind's symbiotic relationship with natural resources. Palmer skillfully incorporates elements from John Milton's famous pastoral elegy into his painting. The serene atmosphere evokes themes of loss and mourning intertwined with hope for renewal—a tribute to Milton's profound literary work. The meticulous details bring life to every stroke—cattle graze peacefully in lush fields as a ploughman guides his trusty ox through fertile soil using an ancient scythe-like tool. Palmer masterfully combines romanticism with realism in this piece that celebrates agriculture and farming—an ode to our connection with nature's bounty. Bridgeman Images allows us access to this timeless treasure—a testament to Palmer’s artistic genius that continues to inspire generations beyond its creation date.
