140. The Archers. This capital picture represents a hilly
country, divided in the centre by a river, and enlivened by a
cluster of cottages on the summit of a hill, beyond which
rises a thick wood, and at some distance off, on the opposite
side, is seen a chateau well sheltered by trees. On the fore-
ground is a party of nine peasants amusing themselves shoot-
ing at the target; one of them, stripped in his shirt, is in
the act of taking his aim at the mark ; a second, in a blue
jacket, stands by, resting his bow on the ground; at the
same time the officious host of the inn is supplying them with
liquor. Three others of the party are near the target; and
the remaining one is running towards it. The appearance
is that of a fine afternoon in the autumn of the year. An
excellent production.
