EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Thumb-Nail Sketches round the Isle of Wight" takes us on a nostalgic journey back to the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, showcases an illustration for The Graphic newspaper from September 18,1886. The scene unfolds with shocking beauty under the moonlight as Mr. Brown and his fellow travelers embark on their adventure around the picturesque Isle of Wight. They set off from Southsea, feeling the refreshing breeze against their faces as they approach the iconic Needles. As they make their way back home, a stiff breeze accompanies them along with a rash wader braving the smooth waters. Piers dotting the coastline provide resting spots for tea breaks while offering breathtaking sea views. The beach is alive with pleasant reflections as everyone becomes absorbed in carrying memories of this day spent with cheap trippers. Thumb-nail sketches capture every moment: sea travel, sand boys pulling carts laden with laughter and joyous scenes unfolding all around. A comfortable suspension pier takes them up a hill towards Alum Bay's dizzy brink where even a little bag seems to be carried away by an ocean wave. Laughter fills the air as jolly Arrys and Cissy enjoy themselves in Shanklin. This enchanting print transports us to an era where simple pleasures were cherished amidst stunning landscapes and seaside adventures were treasured forever.
