The Return Home is a 1849 unspecified by Edward Calvert, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
This painting depicts a serene scene of a woman riding a donkey along a winding path, accompanied by a child. The woman is dressed in a flowing white robe, while the child sits in front of her, both facing right. The donkey is adorned with a rope halter, and the woman holds a shepherd's crook in her right hand. In the background, a small cottage with a thatched roof is nestled among trees, with a mountain range visible in the distance. The sky above is a warm orange hue, suggesting a sunset or sunrise. The painting's tranquil atmosphere and attention to detail invite the viewer to explore the world of Edward Calvert.
