A Long-Vacation Vigil
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Cuthbert Bede, B.A. 1854: A Timeless Scene of Victorian Tourism at Westcliffe This illustration, titled "A Long-Vacation Vigil," was created by the enigmatic Cuthbert Bede, B.A. in 1854, as published in the Illustrated London News. The image offers a humorous and intriguing glimpse into the fashionable world of Victorian Britain, specifically at the popular tourist destination of Westcliffe, Kent, England. The scene unfolds as visitors, both male and female, make their way down the steep cliffside steps to reach the sandy beach below. The women, elegantly dressed in crinoline gowns, parasols, and bonnets, carefully navigate the uneven stairway, their petticoats billowing in the breeze. Men, donning top hats and suits, assist their ladies, ensuring they make it down safely. The illustration showcases the unique blend of fashion, humor, and the natural beauty of the location. The cliffs, with their rugged steps, serve as an accessory to the scene, adding a sense of adventure and excitement to the vacation experience. The parasols and hats protect the visitors from the sun, while the bonnets and top hats add a touch of elegance and sophistication to their attire. The image also highlights the growing trend of tourism in the 19th century, as people traveled from all corners of Britain to explore new locations and enjoy the picturesque landscapes. The Illustrated London News, with its wide circulation, played a significant role in promoting these tourist attractions and fueling the desire for adventure and exploration. This illustration, "A Long-Vacation Vigil," offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian Britain, showcasing the fashion, humor, and natural beauty of the era.
