EDITORS COMMENTS
The Towing Path, 1900 (1902-1903) captures a charming scene from the early 20th century, showcasing the intricate details of life along a canal. In this delightful print by Roland Wheelwright, we are transported back to a time when water transport was an integral part of daily existence. The focal point of the image is a young girl dressed in an Edwardian-style dress and apron, holding onto the reins of two majestic horses. With her blinkered eyes focused on the path ahead, she skillfully guides them along the towpath as they pull a boat or barge through the calm waters. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke - from the ripples in the water to each strand of hair on the girl's head. Surrounding her are other figures who also contribute to this bustling scene: children playing nearby, women going about their daily chores, and men working diligently with ropes and whips. The vibrant colors used in this color print bring life and vitality to every element within it. This artwork not only showcases Wheelwright's artistic prowess but also provides us with a glimpse into an era defined by its reliance on waterways for transportation. It serves as a reminder of how much our world has changed while celebrating our shared history.
