EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era, taking us back to December 18,1787. Created by Thomas Rowlandson, it showcases "The Three Horseshoes" a charming roadside inn in Britain during the eighteenth century. The etching depicts an exterior view of this historical building that still stands as a testament to British heritage. In this scene, we see horses and riders resting outside the inn after their long journey on a wintry road. The pub sign proudly hangs above the entrance, inviting weary travelers inside for warmth and refreshment. People gather around, seeking respite from their travels while enjoying the company of fellow patrons. Rowlandson's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of both architecture and nature. The snow-covered landscape adds a touch of serenity to the bustling scene outside the tavern walls. This artwork not only captures an everyday moment but also serves as a window into life during this period. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print allows us to appreciate Rowlandson's talent for capturing history through his artistic lens. It invites viewers to step into another time and place – one where horse-drawn carriages were commonplace along roadsides dotted with quaint establishments like "The Three Horseshoes. "
