EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by William Logsdail, titled "A Donkey Ride under the Plane Trees at Mentone" takes us on a journey back in time to the picturesque streets of Menton, France. The scene is filled with charm and tranquility as we witness a group of people enjoying a leisurely donkey ride beneath the magnificent plane trees. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, capturing every leaf on the towering trees and every expression on the riders' faces. The play of light filtering through the foliage creates a dappled effect that adds depth and atmosphere to this enchanting street scene. Mentone, located in Provence and Riviera region of France, has long been known for its idyllic landscapes and mild climate. This print transports us to an era when such simple pleasures as a donkey ride were cherished moments of relaxation amidst nature's beauty. Logsdail's work was originally commissioned for The Illustrated London News in 1891, showcasing his talent for capturing everyday scenes with precision and artistry. Now preserved within private collections, this print allows us to appreciate not only Logsdail's skill but also offers glimpses into life during that period. As we gaze upon this exquisite engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can almost hear the soft clip-clop of hooves mingling with laughter and conversation—a timeless reminder that sometimes it is in embracing life's simplest joys that true happiness can be found.
