Waiting for the Ferry - A Glimpse into 19th Century Travel
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Waiting for the Ferry" offers a nostalgic glimpse into the world of 19th-century transportation. Created by an English School artist in the late 1800s, this colour lithograph captures a scene from "The Prize" a renowned publication from that era. In this enchanting illustration, we find ourselves transported to a bustling riverside where eager passengers await their ferry's arrival. The vibrant colours bring life to the scene as boats and tugboats gracefully navigate through shimmering waters—a true ode to nature's fourth element. Amongst the crowd, our attention is drawn towards a group of children eagerly anticipating their journey. Their youthful excitement is palpable as they stand alongside their guardians—perhaps embarking on an adventure or visiting loved ones in distant lands. The meticulous details captured through lithography make every aspect of this image come alive—the texture of water ripples, intricate boat designs, and even the expressions on each child's face are beautifully preserved. As we gaze upon this artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we can't help but reflect on how far passenger transportation has evolved since those early days. This timeless piece serves as a reminder of humanity's unyielding desire to explore new horizons and connect with one another through travel—an enduring theme that transcends time itself.
