Seasickness on the Calais-Dover Ferry: A Vintage Ink and Watercolour Sketch by Florence Hardy This exquisite ink and watercolour sketch, titled 'Seasickness on the Calais-Dover Ferry,' dates back to circa 1893 and is the creation of Florence Hardy, an accomplished artist and the sister of renowned poster artist Dudley Hardy. The daughter of marine painter Thomas Bush Hardy, Florence's artistic talent was nurtured in a family deeply connected to the maritime world. The scene depicted in this artwork portrays the discomfort and unease experienced by passengers on a ferry crossing the English Channel between Calais and Dover. The undulating waves and the rocking motion of the boat are vividly captured through the skilled use of ink and watercolour, evoking a sense of turbulence and instability. The passengers, huddled together and clinging to the railings, display various signs of seasickness - pallid faces, clenched jaws, and anxious expressions. The historical significance of this artwork lies in its portrayal of a common yet universal experience - seasickness. At a time when ferry travel was the primary means of crossing the English Channel, this sketch offers a glimpse into the daily lives of passengers and their struggles with motion sickness during their journeys. The intricate details and the emotional depth conveyed through the artwork serve as a testament to Florence Hardy's artistic prowess and her unique perspective on maritime life. This beautiful vintage sketch is a treasure trove of historical and artistic value, providing a window into the past and offering a glimpse into the challenges and experiences of travel during the late 19th century.
