July and August, 1615
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by the Flemish artist Aegidius Sadeler II, created in the early 17th century. This monochrome masterpiece, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., provides a glimpse into the agricultural life of the past. The image portrays the rural landscape of Flanders during the months of July and August. The scene is set in the countryside, where farmhands are busy at work in the fields. The sun casts long shadows over the undulating terrain, indicating the passage of time and the changing seasons. In the foreground, an agricultural labourer, dressed in traditional clothing, is shown plowing the field with an oxen-drawn plow. Behind him, other farmhands are seen harvesting crops, likely wheat or barley, using sickles and baskets. The sense of community and collaboration is palpable as the workers toil together in the warm summer sun. The engraving is executed on laid paper, giving it a textured and authentic feel. The intricate details and fine lines showcase Sadeler's exceptional skill as an engraver. The use of contrasting tones adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a visual feast for the eyes. This engraving is a valuable heritage art piece that transports us back in time, providing a window into the agricultural practices and rural life of the 17th century. It is a testament to the enduring beauty and relevance of art, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that we continue to preserve and celebrate.
