EDITORS COMMENTS
La Fille De Ferme" (The Farm Girl), a captivating portrait etching from circa 1917, presents a poignant image of rural life and the resilience of a young woman. The farm girl, dressed in simple clothes and wearing a cloak, stands confidently on her land, her posture radiating strength and determination. In her hand, she holds a long stick, a tool both for protection and for managing the land. The serene expression on her face speaks volumes about her connection to the land and her deep-rooted sense of belonging. The backdrop of the image reveals a picturesque scene of farmhouses nestled in the rolling hills, their chimneys billowing smoke, signaling the warmth and comfort of home. The muted colors of the etching add to the sense of tranquility and timelessness, transporting us to a bygone era. This evocative work of art is from the February volume of "March of the Women" collection, a publication dedicated to showcasing the lives and experiences of women during the early 20th century. The artist, William Lee Hankey, masterfully captures the essence of rural life and the spirit of a farm girl in this exquisite etching. The "La Fille De Ferme" etching is a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of rural life and the women who have shaped it. It is a must-have for anyone who appreciates the artistry and historical significance of etchings and the representation of rural life in art.
