EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Brewers Drays, from A New Book of Horses and Carriages, 1784" takes us back to the bustling streets of 18th century Britain. Created by the talented artist Thomas Rowlandson, this etching captures a scene filled with energy and movement. In the courtyard of a brewery, we see several majestic carthorses known as dray horses pulling heavy brewers' drays. These powerful draft horses were essential for transporting barrels of beer from breweries to taverns across the city. Their muscular bodies are beautifully depicted in exquisite detail, showcasing their strength and grace. Amidst this lively atmosphere, a group of dogs can be seen playfully running alongside the dray horses. Their presence adds an element of charm to the composition while highlighting their close connection with humans during that era. Rowlandson's masterful use of black and white creates a timeless quality in this image. The contrast between light and shadow emphasizes every intricate line and texture, bringing these historical figures to life once again. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), we are transported back in time to witness an important aspect of British brewing history. This artwork serves as a testament to Rowlandson's skill as an artist and his ability to capture both the beauty and functionality found within everyday scenes.
