EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the bustling coastal town of Folkestone in the 19th century. The image showcases the impressive architecture of both the New Custom-House and Railway Station, standing proudly side by side. The Custom-House, with its grandeur and elegance, commands attention as it overlooks the harbor. Its intricate detailing and imposing structure evoke a sense of authority and importance. Meanwhile, adjacent to it stands the equally magnificent Railway Station, symbolizing progress and connectivity. The artist Richard Principal Leitch has masterfully captured this moment in time for The Illustrated London News in January 1859. His attention to detail brings life to every aspect of this print - from the ships sailing into port to the people going about their daily activities on land. Folkestone's location on England's southeastern coast is beautifully showcased here; one can almost feel the salty sea breeze as they gaze upon this picturesque scene. The coastline stretches out before us, inviting exploration and adventure. This engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also offers a glimpse into an era when maritime trade was flourishing, customs were enforced diligently at custom-houses like these, and railways were revolutionizing transportation across Britain. As we admire this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection today, we are reminded of how much our world has evolved while cherishing glimpses into our rich past that continue to inspire us.
