The Recent Great Gales, Sketches from Burnmouth, Berwickshire
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the raw power of nature and the resilience of those who work at sea. The engraving, created by William Lionel Wyllie in 1881, depicts a tumultuous scene in which fishing boats are being driven ashore by fierce storms. In this dramatic image, we see fishermen bravely battling against the elements as they try to navigate their way into the safety of the harbor. Their faces show determination and focus as they expertly maneuver their vessels through treacherous waters. Meanwhile, members of the life brigade can be seen directing and guiding these brave souls towards safety. The stormy sky looms ominously overhead, with dark clouds swirling and waves crashing violently against the pier head. It is evident that these recent great gales have left their mark on this coastal community. This engraving not only showcases Wyllie's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of the dangers faced by those who make their living at sea. It pays tribute to the courage and tenacity of fishermen who risk their lives daily to provide for their families and communities. "The Recent Great Gales" transports us back in time to an era when maritime life was both perilous and awe-inspiring. It serves as a testament to human strength in overcoming adversity while highlighting our eternal struggle against nature's forces.
