Originally this exquisite lithograph was created
to illustrate a classic of rural literature, ‘Men and the Fields’, by
Adrian Bell. Of ‘Men and the Fields’ another great man of letters and
literary portraitist of the rural, Ronald Blythe, writes: ‘The unique
talents of both Bell and Nash for presenting the “now” – that particular
threshing week, that actual market day, those snows or rains’ make this
a ‘beautiful liaison of text and illustration’. In this print snow is
still on the ground, the farmer builds a pen in readiness for Spring,
and arrival of the lambs is but weeks away.
