EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, created by the renowned Belgian artist Félicien Rops in 1857, depicts a scene of leisurely relaxation at the popular seaside resort of Ostende, Belgium. The image, published in the periodical Uylenspiegel on August 16, 1857, captures a group of women enjoying the pleasures of the sea. Dressed in their bathing costumes, complete with high-necked, long-sleeved swimsuits and bathing caps, they engage in various water activities, from swimming and wading to simply soaking up the sun. The women are shown in a natural and unpretentious setting, with the vast expanse of the North Sea as their backdrop. The black and white contrast of the image adds to the timeless and nostalgic feel of the scene, transporting us back to a simpler era. This historic illustration is a testament to the enduring appeal of the seaside and the joy of immersing oneself in the natural beauty of the world around us. The image is part of the extensive collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, showcasing the rich artistic heritage of Europe and the world.
