EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: Fowls in Sunlight, Circa 1917 This charming painting captures the idyllic scene of fowls basking in the warm sunlight of a wooded clearing. The vibrant colors of the artwork bring the scene to life, with the rich greens of the foliage contrasting beautifully against the warm browns and reds of the chickens. At the center of the composition, one chicken peeks curiously into a tilted basket, its head cocked to the side as if examining its contents. The basket, with its intricate design and faded patina, adds a sense of nostalgia and timelessness to the image. This painting is believed to have been created around 1917, a period when the depiction of rural life and the natural world was popular in art. The artist, unknown to us, masterfully captures the gentle beauty of the moment, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate the simple pleasures of country living. This print is part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a vast archive of historical images. The collection, which includes over 100,000 prints and illustrations, is a treasure trove of visual history, providing a glimpse into the past through the lens of art and photography. This particular image can be found in the March volume of Horace Mann's "The Living Age," a magazine that was published from 1866 to 1914. The magazine, which covered a wide range of topics, including literature, science, and current events, was known for its high-quality illustrations and was a popular source of visual inspiration for artists and designers of the time.
