Happy Peasant and Monk
Henry William Bunbury British
Not on view
A French peasant wearing huge wooden clogs smiles as he walks beside a monk. The latter figure, and right half of the image, are left unfinished. The satire was inspired by figures the twenty-year old Bunbury saw in France during a European tour in 1769-70, when he took a break from studies at St. Catharine's College, Oxford.
