EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph transports us to Elephant Bay, situated along the picturesque West Coast of Africa. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of this enchanting location. The scene is brought to life with remarkable detail and precision. The image showcases a bustling bay filled with ships sailing through its azure waters. The names of these vessels are elegantly displayed on their hulls, adding a touch of authenticity to the artwork. Whitewashed buildings dotting the shoreline create a stark contrast against the lush green hills that surround them. Elephant Bay itself is framed by imposing rocks and stones that guard its entrance, creating a sense of protection and seclusion. A solitary hill rises majestically in the background, providing a breathtaking backdrop for this coastal paradise. The engraving technique used in this lithograph adds depth and texture to every element depicted within it. Each stroke seems meticulously placed, capturing even the smallest details with great care. This stunning print was originally featured in The Graphic on March 31st, 1894 – an illustration that undoubtedly captivated readers at the time. Now preserved within a private collection, it continues to evoke awe and wonder as we gaze upon it today thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform.
