Est: $3,000 - $5,000
Pencil and gouache on paper. 11 1/2 x 14 in. The picnic depicts a light-hearted commune with nature, as the figures and dog in the center are beautifully surrounded by the tall trees. Hill’s expert delivery of tonality and contrast through gray-brown pencil and his gouache touches make the piece a compelling, detailed moment from daily life of the place and time. Hill includes small but crucial details in the work that provides valuable context for the viewer, such as the women’s dress and caps.

The engraving is in good condition with slight creases along the edges of the paper and mat stains.

Hill pays attention to the differing textures within the single plant: from the buds to the petals and the leaves, the artist carefully depicts realistic properties while retaining the fresh beauty of his subject. The piece is in great condition with minimal fading and mat stain around the edge.
