EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A Tide-Waiter" takes us back to the 19th century with its intricate details and humorous depiction. Created by an anonymous English School artist, this artwork is a true gem from a private collection. The scene showcases a tide-waiter, a customs officer responsible for inspecting ships and their cargo. With his comical expression and exaggerated gestures, he brings an element of humor to his otherwise serious job. This illustration was originally featured in The Comic Annual by Thomas Hood in 1830, adding another layer of historical significance. The engraver's skill is evident in the fine lines that bring out every nuance of the tide-waiter's character. The use of black and white enhances the contrast between light and shadow, creating depth within the image. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to a time when wit and satire were celebrated through art. It serves as a reminder that even in mundane tasks like customs inspections, there is room for laughter and amusement. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of history through Fine Art Finder. Its inclusion in their collection ensures that future generations can appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and gain insight into life during the 19th century.
