More about this artwork

Welcome to a serene glimpse of pastoral life as envisioned by George Morland in his charming sketch, "Study of a Donkey Under a Tree," crafted post-1796. This artwork captures the essence of calm and simplicity, embodying Morland's skill in portraying domestic and rural scenes that resonate with lovers of nature and art alike.The focal point of this drawing is a donkey, comfortably resting under the protective shade of a tree. Morland's masterful strokes render the texture of the donkey's fur and the roughness of the tree bark with equal finesse, bringing a tactile quality to this peaceful scene. The donkey, depicted in repose, symbolizes a moment of rest in the natural world, evoking a sense of peaceful coexistence with its surroundings.The soft shading and delicate lines used by Morland contribute to the overall gentle atmosphere. The background, though loosely defined, suggests a lush, inviting landscape that cradles the donkey in its natural habitat."Study of a Donkey Under a Tree" is more than just a study of an animal; it is an invitation to pause and appreciate the quieter moments of life.

George Morland (26 June 1763 – 29 October 1804) was an English painter. His early work was influenced by Francis Wheatley, but after the 1790s he came into his own style. His best compositions focus on rustic scenes: farms and hunting; smugglers and gypsies; and rich, textured landscapes informed by Dutch Golden Age painting.
