EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the devastating sight of the flooded fens around the Coffer Dam in the Eastern Counties. The farmland is completely drowned, a result of numerous high tides that have caused havoc on the countryside. It was hoped that the building of the Coffer Dam would act as a barrier against these assaults of sea water, but as we can see from this image taken on June 7th, 1862, it has not been entirely successful.
The historical significance of this scene cannot be understated - it serves as a reminder of the power and unpredictability of nature. The import of this flooding on both an economic and social level is evident in every inch of waterlogged land captured in this photograph.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from December 21st, 1862, we are transported back to a time when such natural disasters were an all too common occurrence. The resilience and determination shown by those living in these Eastern Counties during such trying times is truly admirable.
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online serves as a poignant reminder of our vulnerability to Mother Nature's forces and highlights the importance of finding sustainable solutions to protect our precious farmlands for future generations.
