EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century, titled "Making for Harbour" takes us back in time to a bustling port. The intricate details of this print transport us to an era when ships were the lifeline of trade and travel. The scene depicts a picturesque harbour with its towering walls protecting the vessels within. As we gaze at this illustration, we can almost hear the sound of seagulls overhead and feel the salty breeze on our faces. The moorings are filled with boats of various sizes, each one telling its own story of adventure and exploration. The artist's skillful use of shading brings depth to every line, capturing both the grandeur and intimacy of this maritime setting. This engraving is not just a visual representation but also an invitation to imagine ourselves aboard one of these majestic ships, sailing towards new horizons. "Making for Harbour" was originally created as an illustration for The Cottager and Artisan in 1889 by an unknown English School artist. It has since become part of a private collection that values its historical significance. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let it serve as a reminder that even in today's fast-paced world, there is still something enchanting about harbours - places where dreams set sail and journeys begin.
