EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the grandeur of The Yarborough Monument, standing proudly on Bembridge Down in the late 19th century. Created by William Evans, this print immortalizes the architectural masterpiece that is the Granite obelisk on Culver Down, Isle of Wight. Erected in 1849 as a memorial to Charles Anderson-Pelham, who was bestowed with the title of 1st Earl of Yarborough in 1837. Charles Anderson-Pelham's legacy extends beyond his noble status; he founded the esteemed Royal Yacht Squadron in Cowes. This monument stands as a testament to his contributions to yachting and sport during Victorian times. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timelessness to this image, emphasizing its historical significance. Aycliffe Langford's meticulous engraving beautifully highlights every intricate detail of this magnificent structure. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a bygone era when granite monuments dotted the landscape and yachting was at its pinnacle. It serves as a reminder not only of Charles Anderson-Pelham's achievements but also of England's rich architectural heritage. Thanks to The Print Collector and Heritage Images for preserving this piece of history through their collection. Let us appreciate it for its artistic value and historical importance rather than commercial use.
