EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Henley in the Coronation Year" takes us back to a bygone era of elegance and celebration. Created by artist Ralph Cleaver in 1902, this print captures the spirit of Henley-on-Thames during a momentous time - the coronation year. The scene depicted is bustling with activity as boats gracefully glide along the River Thames. The regatta is in full swing, with rowers showcasing their skill and determination. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation, as spectators line the riverbanks to witness this grand spectacle. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we discover hidden gems within its intricate details. Poetic verses adorn the image, paying homage to both Byron's romanticism and Frances Kemble's literary prowess. A tugboat stands out amidst the sea of rowing vessels, reminding us of the importance of transport during that era. Cleaver's masterful engraving technique brings every element to life - from the rippling waves on the river surface to each stroke oar slicing through water effortlessly. This print not only captures a specific moment in history but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when poetry mingled with sport on Henley's shores. Now preserved in a private collection, this remarkable piece allows us to glimpse into an enchanting world where artistry meets athleticism. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst grand celebrations like coronations or regattas, beauty can be found in every detail
