EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century as we witness a group of adventurous English tourists braving the treacherous whirlpool at the Strait of Corryvreckan between Jura and Scarba in Scotland. The handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by William Read, depicts a scene from "The Tour of Doctor Prosody" where our protagonist finds himself in peril amidst the powerful currents and raging waves. As we gaze upon this illustration, we can almost feel the tension and danger that surrounds these brave souls. The swirling waters threaten to engulf their sailboat while a tugboat anxiously watches on, ready to lend assistance if needed. It is a moment frozen in time that captures both the awe-inspiring beauty and terrifying power of nature. This image serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal fascination with pushing boundaries and seeking adventure. It also pays homage to Samuel Johnson's famous quote about Corryvreckan being one of nature's most formidable sights. Through its vivid colors and intricate details, this handcoloured engraving transports us into an era long gone but forever preserved within its lines. It invites us to ponder on our own thirst for exploration and reminds us that even in moments of great peril, there is beauty to be found.
