Our Old Masters sale features this beautiful drawing by Thomas Gainsborough, Dancers in a Wood ✏️ #ChristiesOldMasters
–
During the final decade of his life, Gainsborough began to develop a small group of subjects where figures played a key role in the composition. The present drawing dates from the early 1780s and like so many of Gainsborough’s landscapes, it was intended as a work of art in its own right and was not preparatory to or related to any painting.
