The Fair Haymaker, by G. E. Hicks, in Morby's Collection, Cornhill, 1862. Engraving of a painting. 'The sun has crept round and stolen away from beneath the tree the shade within which we may suppose the little one went to sleep; and so our pretty paresseuse haymaker must needs cover its delicate face from the yellowing light of noontide...A labourer's child has been left asleep in the comer of a hayfield, and this lady-haymaker is, after all, probably merely raising the shawl that has already covered the little sleeper, and is admiring it - a baby, as our lady readers know, being always beautiful'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
