Description: | Ralph Hedley recorded that this picture was intended to represent a scene in the Bigg Market in Newcastle. It shows a country boy who has set off very early in the morning to go to market. The carrier's cart due to take him home is the last one left, and the boy has fallen asleep. For this painting, Hedley used a model featured in several of his other pictures. The boy was painted in Ralph Hedley's studio, rather than in the market. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1885 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Ralph Hedley | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/artonline/se... | Go to resource |
