1865
watercolor
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
The Rabbit Hutch is a 1865 watercolor by Charles Green, a British Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
A boy in a blue cap and striped shirt stands by a wooden hut, feeding a rabbit from his hand. Nearby, a girl in a red dress and yellow headscarf sits on a low wall, holding a green leaf. The hut has a small window with a bunny peeking out, and a pile of cabbages lies on the ground. The colors are soft and earthy, with greens, browns, and reds blending together. The artist focused on everyday life, showing simple moments with care. The brushstrokes are loose, almost sketchy, which makes the scene feel quick and real. Check out Impressionism to see how this style changed art.
