EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, titled and attributed to Thomas Gulliver, showcases the breathtaking landscape of New Zealand circa 1923. The image presents a serene and picturesque scene of a row of trees, meticulously carved and lined along the crest of a hilltop. The trees, with their distinct trunks and foliage, provide a sense of depth and texture to the composition. Behind the trees, the horizon stretches out, marked by the meeting of land and sky. The sky above is filled with billowing clouds, their white forms contrasting against the deep blues and greens of the landscape below. The clouds appear to be emerging from behind the trees, adding a dynamic and almost ethereal quality to the scene. The intricacy and detail of the woodcut technique are evident in the way the trees' bark is textured and the clouds' forms are delicately rendered. The print's muted color palette, with its emphasis on earthy greens and blues, further enhances the sense of tranquility and natural beauty. This woodcut print, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past and the artistic appreciation of New Zealand's natural wonders during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the power of art to transport us to another time and place, inviting us to reflect on the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
