EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Noonday, 1895" by William Edward Stott depicts a serene and idyllic rural scene. In this impressionistic artwork, four young boys can be seen enjoying a warm summer's day by bathing in a pond. The hazy atmosphere adds to the dreamlike quality of the painting. Two of the boys are shown getting dressed, while another walks towards the water's edge. The youngest boy sits with his back turned to the viewer, perhaps lost in his own world of innocence and wonder. Surrounding them are lush trees and grasslands that further enhance the peacefulness of this countryside setting. Stott skillfully uses mottled paint-marks and vibrant tones to convey his personal experience of viewing this scene. Through these artistic choices, he aims to communicate not only what he sees but also how it makes him feel. The painting captures a moment frozen in time - a snapshot of childhood joy and freedom during summertime. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times spent outdoors surrounded by nature's beauty. "Noonday, 1895" is an exquisite example of Stott's ability to capture both visual details and emotional depth within his work. This remarkable piece is housed at Manchester Art Gallery in the UK as part of their esteemed collection thanks to Mr James Thomas Blair's generous bequest in 1917.
