EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "American Sketches - Bathing at Long Branch, New York, 1875" takes us back to a vibrant summer scene in the late 19th century. The artist behind this masterpiece is W Hollidge, who skillfully captures the essence of Americans enjoying their leisure time at the beach in New Jersey. The image showcases a bustling crowd of people from all walks of life gathered along the sandy shores of Long Branch. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we witness families frolicking in the sea, children building sandcastles with glee, and friends engaging in lively conversations under parasols. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on September 4th, 1875. With its monochrome charm and intricate details etched by Arthur Lumley's handiwork for publication purposes, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into an era when seaside holidays were becoming increasingly popular among Americans seeking respite from their daily lives. It serves as a reminder that even over a century ago, people cherished moments spent by the ocean during summer vacations. As we admire this vintage print curated by The Print Collector and provided by Heritage Images (not for commercial use), let it transport us to an era where bathing suits were modest yet fashionable and where laughter echoed across beaches as waves crashed upon the shore.
