The Peep-o-Day Boys Cabin. by Sir David Wilkie. Sir David Wilkie (November 18, 1785 - June 1, 1841) was a Scottish painter. The Peep-o-Day Boy's Cabin, which shows a heartbreakingly young Irish patriot, a member of the Home Rule movement, then sweeping Ireland under the influence of the French Revolution. This is a very different view of village politicians. The young revolutionary is on the run. Slight and fair-skinned, he lies sleeping on an earth floor cradled in his dark-haired mother's arms. The hut which is their home is bare, without a single stick of furniture or any comfort and the woman is anxiously on watch. Painted in powerful and vivid colours, the two figures fill the centre of the canvas. There are no knick-knacks to tempt the eye away from this central relationship and the painting has a real immediacy, a sense that something tragic is about to happen. ©TopFoto. ©TopFoto.
