1850 1851 Brought Fortunate Picnic Picnics Provoking Rain Raining Storm Umbrella Umbrellas Windswept
EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful scene from the past, this 1851 print titled "Pic-nic" captures the essence of a quintessential English picnic, filled with joy and a touch of whimsy. The sun peeks through the clouds, casting a warm glow over the verdant landscape, as a group of elegantly dressed individuals enjoy their feast on a windswept, grassy knoll. The table is laden with an array of delicious foods and refreshing beverages, all ready to be savored in the great outdoors. Despite the ominous clouds gathering in the distance, the group seems blissfully unaware of the impending rain. How very fortunate they are, one might think, as they bask in the moment, surrounded by nature's beauty. The thought of having brought umbrellas, only to have a fine day, is a provoking one indeed. The gentle breeze rustles the leaves of the nearby trees, adding to the serene atmosphere. The rain, which has yet to begin, is a mere suggestion in the air, a fleeting reminder of the ever-changing whims of the weather. This charming print, circa 1850, transports us back in time, inviting us to partake in the simple pleasures of a picnic in the countryside. It serves as a reminder that even on the most unpredictable of days, there is always a reason to gather with loved ones, share a meal, and appreciate the beauty of the world around us.
