About Artwork: (1786) "A horse-drawn cart trundles along a woodland path on the way to market. Two boys and their dog walk alongside its giant wheel, while two girls sit perched on top of the produce. Carrots spill out of a basket, and turnips, potatoes and cabbages are loosely piled in. The older girl raises one arm, perhaps to shade her eyes from the flickering sunlight as they pass beneath the trees, or in response to the woodsman gathering firewood.Two weary travellers rest beside the road with their baskets, bundles and dog. This is one of Gainsborough’s last landscapes, painted about 18 months before he died. The original position of the horse’s head, which was nearer the cart, can now be seen through the paint." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
