EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Light House & Pier, 1820" by artist John Shury takes us back to the charming seaside town of Margate in Kent. Known for its deep-rooted maritime history, Margate's connection to the sea is beautifully depicted in this artwork. The image showcases Margate's original lighthouse, a magnificent round Doric column with a square gallery and cylindrical lantern. Sadly, this architectural gem fell victim to the devastating Great Storm of 1953. However, through this print, we can still appreciate its grandeur and significance. In the bustling harbor below, men go about their daily activities amidst a flurry of transportation options. A sailing boat gracefully glides across the water while a carriage passes by on the nearby road. The scene exudes an air of busyness and vitality that characterizes life in this vibrant coastal town. John Shury's meticulous engraving skillfully captures every detail of Margate's landscape during the early 19th century. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the image, allowing us to immerse ourselves in history as we explore this picturesque location. Whether you are drawn to maritime heritage or simply captivated by historical prints like these, "Light House & Pier" offers a glimpse into Margate's past that is both enchanting and evocative.
