EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, dating back to around 1850, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the picturesque beauty of Jersey Island. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 19th century, this print showcases the island's stunning geography with Mount Pride taking center stage. The image transports us to a time when Jersey was still largely untouched by modern development. The rugged coastline stretches out before us, meeting the crashing waves of the English Channel. In the distance, Gorey Castle stands proudly atop its hill, adding a touch of medieval charm to the scene. Jersey Island is part of the Anglo-Norman Islands and is often referred to as "the sleeve" due to its location in relation to France and England. This print captures not only its natural splendor but also hints at its historical significance as a strategic stronghold throughout history. Preserved in a private collection for years, this rare engraving allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill of its creator and the timeless allure of Jersey Island itself. Whether you have personal ties or simply admire beautiful landscapes, this print serves as a window into an enchanting world frozen in time.
