EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Trepanning a Recruit, 1791 (1909)", we are transported back to the 18th century British military training grounds. The scene captures a group of soldiers, both men and women, engaged in various activities amidst the picturesque outdoors. A female musician sits gracefully with her instrument, creating melodic tunes that fill the air with enchantment. Meanwhile, a young mother cradles her baby tenderly as she immerses herself in literature, finding solace within the pages of a book. Nearby, an affectionate couple engages in playful teasing while sharing moments of laughter and joy. The artist George Keating skillfully recreates this historical moment from an original work by George Morland. Through intricate engraving techniques and attention to detail, Keating brings to life the spirit of camaraderie and dedication that characterized British military life during this era. This monochrome black and white portrait not only showcases the artistic prowess of Keating but also serves as a window into history for modern viewers. It allows us to glimpse into the past and gain insight into how war was approached during the 18th century in Britain. As we admire this exquisite print from Ralph Nevill's collection "British Military Prints" let us appreciate its significance as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable piece of historical documentation.
