EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1882 engraving from the Liszt Collection showcases the mesmerizing beauty and grandeur of ice in the Atlantic Ocean. The print features a series of stunning images that depict various aspects of this icy wonderland. The first image captures an awe-inspiring iceberg, stretching over one mile and three-quarters long, towering above the ocean at a staggering height of 450 feet. Its sheer size is enough to leave anyone speechless. Moving on, we are transported to Blockhouse, Signal Hill, standing proudly at 680 feet above St. Johns Harbour. This historic landmark serves as a testament to human ingenuity amidst nature's raw power. Cape Spear Lighthouse takes center stage in another frame, guiding ships through treacherous waters with its steady beam of light. Meanwhile, South Head Light in St. John's adds its own charm to the coastal scenery. As our eyes wander further into the distance, we catch sight of an immense iceberg standing 500 feet tall and located an astonishing 50 miles away—a true marvel of nature's craftsmanship. The print also offers glimpses into maritime history with depictions such as "The Arizona Ramming an Iceberg" reminding us of the dangers faced by seafarers in these icy waters. Finally, a panoramic view reveals a vast expanse filled with countless icebergs spanning over 30 miles—an ethereal sight that evokes both awe and respect for Mother Nature's creations. This vintage engraving not only showcases natural wonders but also provides insight into Victorian illustrative techniques and artistic styles that have stood the test of time. It invites viewers to appreciate both history and art while capturing their imagination with scenes from a bygone era.
