EDITORS COMMENTS
The Coquet: Warkworth Castle from the road to Amble, c. 1880 (etching) captures a picturesque scene of rural England in the late 19th century. In this sepia-toned print by Edward Slocombe, we are transported back in time to witness daily life along the riverside. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly Warkworth Castle, an impressive medieval structure that dominates the landscape. Its architectural ruins stand as a testament to centuries gone by and evoke a sense of history and grandeur. As we gaze upon this enchanting riverscape, our eyes are drawn to various figures going about their daily activities. A horse and cart trundle along the road, providing transportation for goods or perhaps even passengers. A boat glides peacefully on the river, while a tugboat adds a touch of industrialization to an otherwise idyllic scene. This etching beautifully captures not only the physical surroundings but also offers glimpses into everyday life during Victorian times. The presence of dwellings and housing suggests that this area was once bustling with activity and provided accommodation for its inhabitants. With its meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of light and shadow, Slocombe's artwork transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this charming English countryside.
