EDITORS COMMENTS
The Well on Ockley Green, Surrey (engraving) captures the essence of old England with its picturesque charm and timeless beauty. This 19th-century masterpiece by an anonymous English School artist showcases a hidden gem nestled in the idyllic countryside of Surrey. The print transports us back to a simpler time, where life revolved around community wells like this one. The well stands proudly at the heart of Ockley Green, surrounded by quaint nooks and corners that exude a sense of tranquility and serenity. Its stone structure is weathered by time, each crack telling stories of generations who have relied on its life-giving waters. As we gaze upon this engraving, we can almost hear the echoes of laughter and conversation that once filled these grounds. It serves as a poignant reminder of how essential water was for daily existence in rural England during the 19th century. This artwork originally appeared in The Illustrated London News in September 1851, capturing readers' imaginations with its evocative depiction. Now part of a private collection, it continues to captivate viewers with its nostalgic portrayal of a bygone era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical treasure through their Fine Art Finder platform, allowing us to appreciate and admire the rich heritage captured within this enchanting engraving.
