EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour painting, titled "Folkestone, Kent; verso, Belfast Lough," is a captivating work by the renowned Irish artist James Moore, created in the year 1849. The image showcases a breathtaking view of Folkestone, a coastal town located in Kent, England, with its picturesque harbor and white cliffs in the foreground. The tranquil waters of the English Channel reflect the clear blue sky and the gentle ripples created by the passing boats. On the reverse side of the painting, we find another striking scene - the Belfast Lough in Northern Ireland. The watercolour depicts a bustling harbor filled with ships of various sizes, their sails billowing in the wind. The rugged coastline, dotted with cliffs and small settlements, adds to the sense of raw beauty and natural grandeur. Moore's mastery of watercolour technique is evident in the way he captures the play of light and shadow on the water, the delicate reflections on the surface, and the intricate details of the boats and buildings. The paper bears the faint remnants of the artist's pencil sketches, offering a glimpse into the creative process behind this exquisite work of art. This double-sided watercolour painting is a testament to Moore's talent as a painter and his ability to capture the essence of two distinct coastal landscapes in a single composition. The image invites the viewer to explore the rich history and natural beauty of both Folkestone and Belfast Lough, making it a true treasure for art collectors, historians, and anyone who appreciates the power of art to transport us to another time and place.
