The Village Dance

Thomas Rowlandson

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a rustic scene with thatched roof cottages and a large tree. People are gathered outside. A group of people, adults and children, are dancing. Some are sitting on the ground. Others are sitting or standing around the houses. The houses have thatched roofs and chimneys. A large tree trunk and branches are on the left. A low wall and more trees are in the background. Mountains are in the distance. The scene is rendered in muted colors, with a sepia tone.
