Description:
This evocative countryside print captures the charm of rural life with sensitivity and warmth. Eva Hollyer’s depiction of pastoral romance set against the backdrop of rolling fields and village life reflects both the nostalgia and the idealism of Victorian and Edwardian art. A fine decorative piece, it is equally appealing to collectors of English rural art, Victorian/Edwardian chromolithography, and those seeking a statement of traditional English charm for their interiors.
