1766 1823 Bloomfield Farmer Regional
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the essence of Robert Bloomfield (1766-1823), a humble English regional poet and author, whose works celebrated the simple pleasures of rural life. Born in a small farming community in Suffolk, Bloomfield's experiences as a farmer deeply influenced his poetry, which resonated with the common people of his time. The image of Robert Bloomfield, with his weathered face and worn clothing, reflects the hardships and honesty of a life spent working the land. His gaze, fixed on the horizon, suggests a deep connection to the natural world that surrounded him. Bloomfield's most famous work, "The Farmer's Boy," was published in 1800 and became an instant success, selling over 20,000 copies in its first year. The collection of poems celebrated the beauty of rural life and the simple joys of farming, striking a chord with readers who longed for a connection to the land. Bloomfield's poetry was unique in its time for its focus on the experiences of the common man, and his works were widely read and admired throughout England. Despite his literary success, Bloomfield continued to live and work as a farmer, refusing to abandon his roots or the simple life that had inspired his art. This portrait, taken in the year of his death, serves as a poignant reminder of the man behind the poetry, a humble farmer and poet who captured the hearts of his readers with his honest and heartfelt words. The image invites us to reflect on the beauty of the natural world and the simple pleasures of rural life, just as Bloomfield did in his beloved poems.
