Over het werk
Helen Allingham is one of the best known Victorian painters in watercolours. She is also one of the most successful British women artists ever. Most of her scenes were painted in the south of England, particularly Surrey, where she lived from 1881. She often emphasised the worn charm of old thatched cottages, broken fences and overgrown gardens. This backward-looking world is peopled almost exclusively by women and children. Allingham was representing rural life for an urban audience who wanted to believe that a place of simple healthy lives, domestic ideals and older, better values still existed. She idealised life in Surrey countryside that, in reality, was all too often a monotonous and careworn experience for agricultural workers and others.
