EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, dating back to 1777, showcases Mary Ann Wrighten in the role of Peggy in Allan Ramsay's pastoral comedy, The Gentle Shepherd. The theatrical scene unfolds as Peggy, adorned in a delicate floral bodice and an apron, gracefully holds a woven basket filled with an array of vibrant blossoms. Ramsay's masterpiece, which premiered in Edinburgh, Scotland, was a significant contribution to the Scottish literary and theatrical scene. The Gentle Shepherd, a pastoral comedy, was renowned for its exploration of love, morality, and the simple pleasures of rural life. This exquisite print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the world of Ramsay's beloved characters and their enchanting stories.
