EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pencil, sepia wash, and white drawing depicts the picturesque Marchioness of Antrims Cottage nestled within the serene Glenarm Deer Park. The image, created by the skilled hand of John James Barralet in 1796 (circa), transports us back in time to the lush Irish countryside. The Marchioness of Antrims Cottage, a charming abode, is surrounded by the tranquil beauty of nature. Deer roam freely in the parklands, their graceful forms a testament to the abundant wildlife that once thrived in these parts. The cottage itself, with its whitewashed walls and thatched roof, appears as a quintessential representation of rural Irish architecture. Barralet, an accomplished artist of the late 18th century, masterfully captures the essence of the scene. His intricate use of pencil, sepia wash, and white, along with his keen attention to detail, allows the viewer to almost feel the cool breeze and hear the gentle rustling of leaves. The watermark on the laid paper, bearing the image of a crowned lily, adds an air of elegance and sophistication to the artwork. This drawing, with its rich history and stunning detail, offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the daily life of the Marchioness and her family as they resided in their idyllic cottage amidst the rolling hills and deer-filled grounds of Glenarm Deer Park.
