EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the devastating hurricane that struck St. Thomas, Danish West Indies, on October 29th, 1867. The image showcases a view of the harbor during the height of the storm, as captured by a contemporary Danish wood engraving. The scene is filled with chaos and destruction caused by the powerful forces of nature. Waves crash against the exterior structures while fierce winds whip through the air. The once serene harbor has turned into a battleground for survival. In this dramatic depiction, we witness a sailing ship caught in the midst of this tempestuous event. Its masts are bending under pressure, and it seems perilously close to sinking beneath the raging sea. The sight serves as a stark reminder of how vulnerable humanity can be when faced with such uncontrollable natural disasters. The engraving not only captures an extraordinary moment frozen in time but also provides valuable historical insight into life on St. Thomas during this period. It offers us a glimpse into what our ancestors endured and overcame amidst these treacherous conditions. As part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, this print allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance without any commercial intent or association with any company named "Carousel.
