Four o' Clock in the Country
EDITORS COMMENTS
, pub. 1788, is a captivating coloured etching with aquatint that offers a delightful glimpse into the daily life of an English countryside household during the late 18th century. This charming print by Thomas Rowlandson measures 22.9x30.5 cm and belongs to a private collection. The scene depicts a sleepy man reluctantly rising from his cradle-like bed, preparing himself to join the hunt at such an early hour. The contrast between this print and its companion piece becomes evident as we compare it to another artwork where the husband arrives home after a night out on the town. In this particular image, we witness not only the fatigue of our protagonist but also catch glimpses of other elements that add depth to this narrative. A tired wife can be seen beside him, perhaps bidding him farewell or expressing her concern for his safety as he embarks on his hunting adventure. The room itself exudes warmth and coziness, adorned with fox pelts hung proudly on the wall and featuring various hunting paraphernalia scattered about - including a prominent hunting horn resting against a chair. This whimsical caricature captures both humor and tenderness within its intricate details: from the huntsman's weariness juxtaposed against his eagerness for adventure, to even catching sight of their baby nestled peacefully in its crib nearby. Rowlandson's masterful execution brings this lively scene to life while offering us insight into rural English society during this period. It
