EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the sheer power and drama of nature's fury. This engraving by the English School in the 19th century offers a glimpse into a tumultuous moment in history. The image depicts wreckage strewn across the quay as waves crash violently against the pier. The stormy sea appears to be throwing itself mercilessly upon the coastal town of Dover. The artist skillfully portrays the chaos and intensity of this maritime tempest, with dark clouds looming overhead and rain pouring down like a relentless drencher. The scene is set on that fateful day - Tuesday, 18 January - when Lord Warden's Admiralty Pier faced its greatest challenge yet. This print was originally created as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on 29 January 1881, providing readers with a visual account of this dramatic weather event. It serves as a reminder of both the beauty and danger that can be found along our coastlines. As we gaze upon this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back to that treacherous day in Kent where man battled against nature's might. It stands as a testament to human resilience in face of adversity and reminds us to always respect and admire the raw power of Mother Nature.
