EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Breakwater, Harbour, and Docks, Table Bay, Cape of Good Hope" takes us back to the 19th century in South Africa. The image showcases the bustling maritime activity at Table Bay with its magnificent coastline and shoreline. Ships of various sizes are seen docked at the harbor while others sail gracefully on the sea. The artist from English School beautifully captures the essence of this coastal region, highlighting its importance as a trading hub during that era. The breakwater stands tall and sturdy, protecting the harbor from rough waves and ensuring safe passage for ships entering or leaving Table Bay. As we gaze upon this historical print, it transports us to a time when seafaring was an integral part of global trade. The attention to detail in depicting each vessel is remarkable; one can almost feel the energy emanating from these busy docks. This artwork originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on November 19th, 1870 - a testament to its significance even then. Now preserved in a private collection but made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this engraving serves as a window into history for all who appreciate maritime heritage and the beauty of coastal landscapes.
