The Great Gale, Havoc at Westgate-on-Sea and Ramsgate
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures the sheer power of nature during "The Great Gale" that struck Westgate-on-Sea and Ramsgate in the 19th century. The image, taken by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown, showcases the devastating aftermath of this fierce storm. Intriguingly preserved within a private collection, this print was originally featured as an illustration in The Illustrated London News on December 4th, 1897. It serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive forces that can be unleashed upon coastal communities. The photo depicts scenes of chaos along the shoreline: broken sea walls, damaged harbors piers, and a crumbling sea wall promenade. The colonnade stands defiantly against crashing waves while nearby buildings bear witness to their relentless assault. St Mildreds Bay in Ramsgate is also captured in all its turbulent glory. Through the lens of early photography, we are transported back to a time when maritime disasters were documented with awe-inspiring precision. This image not only showcases the skillful artistry behind capturing such moments but also serves as a historical record of past events. As we gaze upon this powerful snapshot frozen in time, let us reflect on both our vulnerability to nature's fury and our resilience in rebuilding what has been lost.
