Framed Print of A Leisure Hour, by W. M. Wyllie, from the exhibition at the Dudley Gallery, 1873. Creator: William Biscombe Gardner
A Leisure Hour, by W. M. Wyllie, from the exhibition at the Dudley Gallery, 1873. Yet, humble sea-waif though he be, we will venture to say that [this boy] does not answer to somebody's contemptuous definition of an angler - a hook at one end of a line and a fool at the other. No; he is not spending his time foolishly, as that glistening bunch of mackerel, which, too, he knows well how to dress and bring to table, amply testifies. Cabin-boy and cook, probably, on board a coaster, his duties are many and various...Sometimes, when the work is done, and a gentle breeze ruffles the surface of the deep, he puts out his mackerel lines, as now, and so usefully beguiles a leisure hour. And who does not know the ship's dog, the natural friend and ally of the boy? The dog's keen relish of the sport is quite in keeping with his proverbial sagacity. This amusing and very well-painted picture (which we engrave from the exhibition at the Dudley Gallery) is by Mr. W. M. Wyllie, the father of two young and promising painters, whose sea-coast and shipping subjects are already very favourably known to the public'. From Illustrated London News, 1873.
