EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Ramsgate" takes us back to the year 1836. Engraved by Joseph Clayton Bentley, this piece showcases the remarkable talent of both Bentley and the original artist, Clarkson Stanfield. The scene depicts a bustling harbor in Ramsgate, a picturesque seaside town in England. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the harbor wall under construction. A group of hardworking builders can be seen strengthening it with their tools and equipment. A crane stands tall against the backdrop of a Georgian-style lighthouse and pier, indicating that progress is being made on this engineering feat. The attention to detail in this engraving is truly impressive. Every line etched into the paper brings life to each figure involved in this laborious task. From dockers operating pulleys and hoists to workers maneuvering machinery, every individual plays an essential role in shaping Ramsgate's future. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where manual labor was at its peak. This print serves as a testament not only to Bentley's skillful craftsmanship but also as a tribute to those who dedicated themselves to building thriving communities along Britain's coastlines.
