EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in history - the Opening of the New Sea Wall between Hythe and Sandgate by the Prince of Wales. The image, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a monumental event that took place on January 1,1876. The print portrays a scene filled with awe-inspiring landmarks and natural beauty. In the foreground stands Hythe Church, its architectural grandeur contrasting against the ruggedness of the unembanked land. The sea wall itself is an impressive feat of engineering, symbolizing protection against future calamities like the devastating Great Storm. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, we witness how this new embankment has transformed these coastal towns forever. It not only safeguards their existence but also signifies progress and resilience in face of adversity. The presence of royalty adds further significance to this occasion. The Prince of Wales graces this event with his esteemed presence, emphasizing its importance to both local communities and national interests. Through this evocative engraving, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand a pivotal moment where man's ingenuity meets nature's might. This artwork serves as a testament to human determination and our ability to shape our surroundings for generations to come.
