Frosty Morning in a Manx Glen' depicts a view less than a mile from the artist’s home in Port Erin. A horse and cart slowly trudges up the hill in the foreground and a herd of cattle meander along the lane in the background, going to or from milking. Hoggatt has captured a working agricultural scene on an autumn morning, the almost bare trees cling onto their few remaining golden leaves. The slow rhythm of the Manx rural landscape can be seen in many of Hoggatt’s works. Despite the evocative title, there is little sense of either cold or frost. We might be forgiven for looking at this painting with a degree of nostalgia, depicting as it does a timeless and almost idyllic rural world long since lost.
