Summer Amusement at Farmer G----s near Windsor, 1786 - A Royal Twist on Rural Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1786, we are transported to the idyllic countryside of Berkshire, England. The scene unfolds at Farmer G----s' farmhouse, where a delightful summer amusement is taking place. At the center of attention stands the young Prince of Wales himself, who would later become King George IV. With sleeves rolled up and a mischievous grin adorning his face, the future king enthusiastically churns butter in an old-fashioned wooden churn. This unexpected sight brings together two worlds that rarely collide - royalty and rural life. Surrounded by cows grazing peacefully in the background and a curious feline companion by his side, Prince George's playful involvement in such humble tasks showcases his down-to-earth nature and willingness to embrace all aspects of British culture. The artist behind this charming illustration is none other than George Paston (pseudonym of Emily Morse Symonds), known for her satirical social caricatures. Through her skilled hand, she captures not only the prince's lighthearted spirit but also provides us with a glimpse into daily life during the 18th century. This print serves as a reminder that even those born into privilege can find joy in simple pleasures while immersing themselves in their surroundings. It encapsulates both tradition and progress as it immortalizes an important figure in British history engaging with rural traditions that have shaped their nation for centuries.
