A Cosey Corner, 1884
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Francis Davis Millet captures the essence of a tranquil and inviting space in late 19th-century America. This oil painting transports us to a charming cottage nestled in the Cotswolds, where time seems to stand still. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he portrays an elegantly dressed woman engrossed in her reading, seated beside a warm hearth. The cozy interior is adorned with flagstone flooring and stone walls that exude rustic charm. A kettle gently simmers on the fire, adding to the ambiance of comfort and relaxation. The window allows natural light to filter through, illuminating the room and highlighting its serene atmosphere. Millet's choice of subject matter reflects not only his artistic skill but also his appreciation for literature and leisurely pastimes. Through this artwork, he invites viewers into a world where one can escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life and find solace within the pages of a book. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "A Cosey Corner" serves as a reminder of simpler times when people sought refuge in their homes surrounded by beauty and tranquility. It speaks to our universal longing for moments of peace amidst our busy lives. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are transported back in time - united with both history and art - appreciating Millet's ability to capture not just an image but also an emotion that resonates across centuries.
