EDITORS COMMENTS
"This print depicts Rudyard's Eddystone Lighthouse, an iconic landmark of maritime history. The image is an engraving based on a painting by the renowned British artist, Clarkson Stanfield, R.A. (Royal Academician), created specifically for private theatrical events at Campden-House in the late 19th century. The painting was inspired by the events surrounding the construction of the Eddystone Lighthouse, which was built by John Rudyerd in 1709. Located off the English coast in the English Channel, the Eddystone Lighthouse has a rich and intriguing history. It was initially built in 1698 but was destroyed by storms several times before the current structure was erected. John Rudyerd, a wealthy Cornish merchant, played a significant role in the third attempt to build a permanent lighthouse at Eddystone Rock. The lighthouse was designed by Sir James Temple and was completed in 1709. The painting and the theatrical production at Campden-House were likely based on the heroic efforts and challenges faced by Rudyerd and his team during the construction of the lighthouse. The print captures the grandeur and majesty of the lighthouse, standing tall against the turbulent sea, a beacon of hope and safety for sailors navigating the treacherous waters of the English Channel. This print is a testament to the historical significance of the Eddystone Lighthouse and the determination of those who built it. It is a beautiful and intriguing piece of art that transports us back in time to an era of maritime exploration and adventure." Image details: Title: The Lighthouse Artist: Clarkson Stanfield, R.A.
