EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative painting by Malcolm Greensmith captures the timeless scene of an elderly shepherd taking a well-deserved rest amidst the rolling hills and lush fields of the countryside. The shepherd, with his weathered face and worn laces, sits atop a small hillock overlooking his flock of contented sheep, who graze peacefully in the verdant pastureland below. His faithful collie dog lies at his feet, keeping a watchful eye on the scene. The shepherd's crook and pipe are at hand, symbols of his long years of dedication to the traditional art of farming and animal husbandry. The painting transports us back to a simpler time, when the rhythms of rural life were governed by the seasons and the needs of the land and its livestock. The scene is reminiscent of a bygone era, one that continues to hold a special place in our collective imagination and appreciation for the beauty and richness of the natural world. This painting, created in the year 1980, is a testament to the enduring history and importance of farming and agriculture in our society.
