EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative gouache drawing on paper captures the passionate intensity of Rev. George Whitefield's sermon in the timber yard at Lurgan on July 12, 1751. The Reverend George Whitefield (1714-1770), a prominent figure in the 18th-century Evangelical Revival in both Britain and America, is depicted in the moment of delivering his powerful message to a rapt audience. The timber yard, with its rough, textured backdrop of wooden beams and planks, serves as an apt setting for Whitefield's impassioned preaching. The artist, William Miller (d.1779), masterfully captures the emotion and energy of the scene, with Whitefield's outstretched arms and animated facial expression conveying the fervor of his words. The crowd, composed of men, women, and children, are absorbed in the sermon, their rapt attention evident in their focused gazes and postures. The drawing, created in 1751, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the religious fervor and community spirit of the time. The intricate details of the timber yard and the dynamic composition of the drawing make it a captivating work of art, while the historical significance of the scene adds depth and context to the image.
