The Runaway Wagon

Artist: James Ward (English, 1769-1859)

Date: 1750-1850

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Private Collection

Description

An exhilarating and urgent chase is depicted in The Runaway Wagon as a man desperately pursues his wagon pulled by two horses as they speed away in a full gallop. James Ward is best known for his accomplished animal studies although he also expertly captured people and landscapes; in this composition, he brings all three components together to create an engaging scene. The tumultuous energy of the scene is heightened by the dark and stormy clouds in the sky and the shadowy ground beneath, and Ward’s vigorous brush strokes and strong colours add to the drama.

Toria Wooff releases 1970's inspired track ‘James Edward’

Toria Wooff returns with a beautifully structured and mellow Americana ballad, ‘James Edward’. Finding beauty in the bleakest places, Toria Wooff shares stories of the world around her. A hyper-real painter, poet and musician with Synaesthesia, characters she encounters emerge through song and ‘James Edward’ is the latest name on her lips; a literal and figurative folk-rock voyage in grey and pink.

“It describes being with someone who wants to stick around you, even when you feel you’re not that interesting or easily distracted by other things,” says Toria. “It’s like returning from a long trip and that person is still there, waiting for you.”

Upturning expectations of what it means to be ‘folk’ by making the mundane magical,  ‘James Edward’ is the perfect entry point into Toria Wooff’s mystical repertoire. Emerging from a place of despair with a penchant for gothic darkness, pedal steel and Wurlitzer is pushed through a classic rock filter to offer the perfect disguise of a torch song from the wild dust lands of America - not the weathered hills of her hometown in Lancashire; “my dress was static from the wind and made you pray for your sins,” chimes her vocal lament, perhaps begging the bigger question; who is the mysterious Edward?

“I was 17 and shared a taxi home from a gig with the loveliest 80-year-old man,” Toria recalls. “The song’s not about him but his name stuck. It was one of those surreal moments where I was struck by how unusual the real-life situation was; sharing a space with this stranger, generations apart. If he knew I’d borrowed his name for a song he’d probably think that was a bit strange too!”

Recorded with producer and mix engineer James Wyatt in his Sloe Flower studio, ‘James Edward’ was fleshed out from early acoustic demos and rides high on imagination as the pair aimed to create a feeling of ‘70s inspired, full band production.
