EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print, titled "Outside a Country Alehouse" captures the essence of rural life in 18th-century England. Engraved by William Ward in 1797, this coloured aquatint showcases the collaborative work of artists G. Morland and J. Ward. The scene unfolds outside a charming country alehouse, where an array of characters has gathered. A chain of events seems to be taking place as hunters on horseback join forces with locals who have come to enjoy their evening at the inn. The atmosphere is filled with warmth and camaraderie as conversations flow freely among these members of the tight-knit community. In the foreground, we see a mother resting with her child while serving drinks to patrons seated around rustic wooden tables. Dogs rest nearby, their collars gleaming under the sunlight that filters through leafy trees surrounding a peaceful pond. This artwork beautifully portrays both human interaction and nature's tranquility within one frame. It invites us to imagine ourselves amidst this lively gathering – perhaps engaged in conversation or simply enjoying a refreshing beverage after a long day's hunt. Preserved in private collection but made available by The British Sporting Art Trust, this print serves as an invaluable historical document that transports us back to simpler times when community bonds were strong and life revolved around shared experiences like those found outside this country alehouse.
