Daydreaming on the River Bank
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by British artist Henry Lejeune. The artwork, measuring 33.7x49.8 cm, depicts a serene scene of rural life in the nineteenth century. In this idyllic countryside setting, we see two children seated on an embankment by the side of a river. The young girl, dressed in a delicate blouse and skirt, sits with her hands clasped together as she gazes dreamily into the distance. Her fair hair cascades down her back, adding to the ethereal atmosphere of the painting. Beside her sits a barefoot boy wearing simple attire. Lejeune's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of nature surrounding these daydreaming figures. The hilly landscape and lush greenery create a natural space that invites contemplation and introspection. This late nineteenth-century masterpiece captures not only the innocence and beauty of childhood but also reflects Victorian ideals prevalent during that era. Through his skillful brushstrokes, Lejeune transports us to another time and place where imagination flourishes along peaceful riverbanks. Now preserved in private collection, this exquisite artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm and evocative imagery. "Daydreaming on the River Bank" serves as a testament to Lejeune's talent as well as an enduring symbol of British art from this period.
