EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: In this black and white etching, titled "Plate 1: a peasant checking the hoof of his mule by a stream" artist Franz Joachim Beich transports us to the rustic countryside of the 18th century. The scene depicts an agricultural worker diligently attending to his trusted beast of burden, as they pause by a tranquil stream. The meticulous attention to detail in this artwork showcases Beich's mastery in capturing both human and animal forms. The peasant's weathered face reflects years of hard work under the sun, while his hands gently inspect the mule's hooves for any signs of wear or injury. This intimate moment between man and animal highlights their symbiotic relationship within the realm of farming. Set against a picturesque landscape featuring rolling hills and an estuary in the distance, Beich skillfully portrays rural life during this era. The composition exudes tranquility and invites viewers to appreciate nature's beauty alongside these humble figures. This remarkable print is part of Beich's series "Landscapes in the manner of Salvator Rosa" which pays homage to Italian painter Salvator Rosa known for his dramatic landscapes. With its exquisite craftsmanship and evocative portrayal, this second state etching from ca. 1700-25 now resides at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, serving as a testament to both artistic heritage and historical agricultural practices.
