EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Smuggling at Gibraltar" takes us back to a time of intrigue and adventure along the coastlines. The image depicts contrabandistas, or smugglers, preparing to pass through the Spanish Custom House after leaving Gibraltar. Created by Henry Woods in 1879, this print offers a glimpse into the world of clandestine activities that took place during this era. The scene is filled with anticipation as women and men dressed in fashionable attire gather near the shoreline. Their clothing reflects both the coastal setting and their daring lifestyle. As they make their way towards the Spanish Custom House, one can't help but wonder what secrets lie hidden within their cargo. The artist skillfully captures the essence of maritime life with meticulous attention to detail. The coastline stretches out behind them, reminding us of Gibraltar's strategic location as a hub for smuggling operations. This engraving not only showcases an intriguing moment in history but also invites viewers to imagine themselves partaking in these illicit adventures. It serves as a reminder that even amidst strict customs regulations, there were those who dared to challenge authority and profit from illegal trade. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time - witnessing firsthand the audacity and resourcefulness of these contrabandistas on their quest for fortune along the treacherous shores of Gibraltar.
