EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sketches at the Lizard" takes us back to the enchanting coastal region of Cornwall in the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, offers a glimpse into the dramatic and breathtaking beauty of this area known as the Lizard Peninsula. The image showcases various scenes that highlight both natural and man-made elements. From the iconic Lizard Lights illuminating the coastline to the rugged cliffs of Lizard Point, every detail captures the essence of this maritime wonderland. The viewer is transported to Kynance Cove, with its picturesque sandy beach nestled between towering rock formations. In contrast, we see Lloyd's Signal Station perched atop a cliff, serving as a reminder of human presence amidst nature's grandeur. The sketch conveys a sense of awe and admiration for Cornwall's stunning coastlines. It invites us to explore every nook and cranny along this shoreline, where land meets sea in perfect harmony. With each stroke on paper meticulously etched by hand, it becomes evident that this artwork was not only intended for aesthetic pleasure but also served as an illustration for The Illustrated London News in September 1881. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of how art can transport us through time and space – allowing us to appreciate historical landscapes while igniting our own sense of wanderlust.
