EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Near Caistor, 1889" transports us back in time to the English countryside of the late 19th century. Painted by Thomas Collier, this artwork captures a serene landscape with meticulous detail and skillful use of watercolor over graphite on paper. The scene depicts a windmill standing tall amidst the vastness of Norfolk or possibly Lincolnshire. The flat terrain stretches as far as the eye can see, creating an overwhelming sense of openness and tranquility. The cloudy sky adds a touch of melancholy to the otherwise peaceful setting, evoking a feeling of solitude and introspection. Collier's masterful brushwork brings life to every element in this rural vista. From the meticulously rendered windmill blades to the delicate strokes that define each blade of grass, his attention to detail is truly remarkable. This painting not only showcases his technical prowess but also highlights his ability to capture the essence and atmosphere of an English landscape. Preserved within Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection, this timeless piece invites viewers into a world where nature reigns supreme and human presence seems almost insignificant. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly bleak surroundings, there is beauty waiting to be discovered if we take a moment to appreciate our surroundings.
