Our Coastguard
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment of bravery and determination along the coast. The print showcases an intense scene where coastguards are passing a Martello tower, engaged in their spirit of duty and signaling practice. This illustration, originally featured in The Graphic on June 18,1892, brings to life the perilous nature of their work. Set against the backdrop of Romney Marsh, we witness these dedicated men semaphoring from boats as they await assistance or rapidly wade through the water towards smugglers' distress. Lace bales and tubs filled with contraband silk are being beaten by waves while coastguards touch hands in solidarity. The artist Charles J. Staniland skillfully portrays the tension and urgency felt by these brave individuals who risked their lives to protect our shores. Their semaphore signals communicate vital information to those manning a galley onshore or launching night patrols for petrol boat transport. This engraving from Bridgeman Images captures not only the physical challenges faced by these coastguards but also reveals glimpses into their emotional state – expressions ranging from determination to despair can be seen among them. It serves as a poignant reminder of how passenger transportation was intertwined with misery during this era. "Our Coastguard" is more than just an artwork; it encapsulates history and pays tribute to those who selflessly served our coastal communities during times of distress and desperation.
