Image: ID: 391 Artist: Linnell, John Artist Birth Date: 1792 Artist Death Date: 1882 Artist Country: British Title of Work: Haymakers' repast: a scene in Wales Date of Work: 1815 Medium: oil Period/Style: nineteenth century URL: http://www.hayinart.com/images/391.jpg Citation: Payne, Christiana. Toil and plenty; images of agricultural landscape in England, 1780-1890.Yale UP, 1993, p.93. Barringer, Tim. Men at work: art and labour in Victorian Britain. Yale UP, 2005, p. 127. Index Words: hayfield, workers, resting Place: Wales Notes: Payne notes that this oil painting was based on a watercolor done during Linnell's trip to Wales two years earlier. But the earlier sketch included only the field and its workers making haycocks; the foreground figures, one lying as flat as the rake beside him, another carrying a pot on her head, others sitting in a row, like the one in ID 388, were all added later. (p.93) Barringer notes that rural labourers here are portrayed as individuals with closely observed facial features, dress and posture and that at least thirteen people are shown working in a small field. The modern style rakes also reflect Linnell's documentary (as opposed to picturesque) approach. (p. 121) Essays:
Image: ID: 397 Artist: Ibbetson, Julius Caesar Artist Birth Date: 1759 Artist Death Date: 1817 Artist Country: British Title of Work: Haymaking Date of Work: 1792 Medium: watercolor Period/Style: eighteenth century URL: http://www.hayinart.com/images/397.jpg Citation: Payne, Christiana. Toil and plenty; images of agricultural landscape in England, 1780-1890.Yale UP, 1993, p.130-131. Index Words: sledge, hayfield, women rake, transport, Wales Place: Wales Notes: Payne, ever alert to the nuance of dress, notes that the women rakers are probably Welsh and certainly elegantly attired, and furthermore that their poses, front and back to the observer, show off their entire outfits. As to their work, she reminds us that raking 'was a relatively light occupation, one that could be indulged in by members [especially ladies] of the wealthier classes who wanted to play at farm work.' (p.131) The hay-moving vehicles are more characteristically regional than the costumes, horse-drawn sledges being more practical than wagons in these mountainous regions. A smaller version of the sledge, the hay sweep, was used in England, as late as the 1950s to pile up windrows into cockable heaps. Essays:

Index Words: hayfield Place: Wales Notes: The tiny image illustrating an exhibition of nineteenth century paintings of 'Wales and the Border Country' allows very little interpretation of the work being done in a small meadow, by the north Welsh River Lledr, surrounded by woodland.
