The Coming of Spring, 1899
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Edward Atkinson Hornel captures a moment of pure joy and celebration as a group of girls gather in a woodland to welcome the arrival of spring. The painting, featured in the Glasgow Museums Service collection, showcases Hornel's mastery in depicting the beauty and essence of nature. In this enchanting scene, snowdrops bloom delicately in the foreground, symbolizing the awakening earth after winter's slumber. The vibrant colors and lush foliage surrounding the girls evoke a sense of renewal and vitality that comes with the changing season. Hornel skillfully portrays each girl's happiness and excitement through their animated expressions and playful gestures. Their connection with nature is evident as they carefully pick flowers from among the trees, immersing themselves in this magical moment. The artist's attention to detail brings forth an atmosphere filled with joyous energy. It is impossible not to be captivated by this idyllic scene that transports us back to a simpler time when children found solace and wonderment within nature. "The Coming of Spring" serves as a reminder that amidst our busy lives, we should take pause to appreciate the beauty around us. This masterpiece encapsulates both Hornel's artistic brilliance and his deep appreciation for nature's wonders.
