"The Mid-Day Meal" - painted by H. B. Willis - from the Exhibition of the National Institution, 1856. Engraving of a painting. '"The Mid-day Meal" of Mr. Brittan Willis, at the Portland Gallery, is a picture that will make Mr. Sydney Cooper look about him. The scene is an open field on the coast of Sussex, the time (of course) mid-day, the weather fine and healthy, the personages ploughboys, and the cattle such as Sussex mixed with Suffolk breed; the horses are lifelike, and the whole effect is very pleasing'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
