EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Ho Ho! The Breakers Roared" artist Edward Steel Harper takes us on a thrilling journey to the stormy coast. The print, part of a private collection, captures the raw power and beauty of nature's fury. The scene depicted is one of chaos and awe-inspiring energy as massive breakers crash against the rugged shoreline. With meticulous detail, Harper skillfully portrays the tumultuous sea with its towering waves and foaming crests. Each line etched into the print seems to vibrate with intensity, conveying both the danger and majesty of these coastal storms. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost hear the deafening roar of the breakers echoing in our ears. It serves as a reminder that despite humanity's attempts to tame or control nature, there are forces far greater than ourselves at work in this world. Harper's illustration originally appeared in The Graphic on March 10th, 1888. Its inclusion in Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection ensures that future generations can appreciate his talent for capturing such dramatic moments from history. This engraving transports us to a time when maritime life was intimately tied to these treacherous shores. It invites us to contemplate our own insignificance amidst nature's grandeur while also marveling at its relentless power.
