EDITORS COMMENTS
This pencil sketch by Gerard Manley Hopkins transports us back to the serene countryside of Godshill, on the picturesque Isle of Wight. Dated around the 1860s, it showcases a magnificent beech tree standing tall and proud, with the charming Godshill Church peeking through its branches in the background. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he delicately captures every intricate line and texture of both nature and architecture. The tree's roots are skillfully depicted, intertwining with the earth below, symbolizing strength and resilience. The church behind exudes an air of tranquility against a backdrop of lush greenery. Hopkins himself had a personal connection to this idyllic location. Spending his summer holidays just four miles away in Shanklin, it is likely that he created this sketch during one such visit. His love for nature shines through in this piece as he immerses himself in botanical study and landscape observation. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported into Hopkins' world - a world where art meets nature seamlessly. It serves as a reminder to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us and encourages us to take a moment to pause amidst our busy lives and immerse ourselves in the serenity of our natural surroundings.
