EDITORS COMMENTS
By Water, c. 1881-2 (w/c) captures the essence of a bygone era with its exquisite depiction of a Victorian dockside scene. Painted by the renowned artist James Jacques Joseph Tissot, this stunning print transports us back in time to witness the elegance and grandeur of travel during this period. The painting showcases a magnificent ship, its masts towering into the sky as it awaits departure. The rigging is meticulously detailed, emphasizing the craftsmanship involved in constructing such vessels. Barrels and trunks are scattered on the dockside, symbolizing the cargo being loaded onto the ship - a testament to global trade and exploration. Amidst this bustling scene stands an elegant traveler named Kathleen Newton, her presence adding a touch of mystery and intrigue to the composition. Her poised demeanor suggests she is eagerly awaiting embarkation or bidding farewell to loved ones. Tissot's masterful use of watercolors brings life to every brushstroke, capturing both light and movement with remarkable precision. The play between shadows and reflections on the water creates an ethereal atmosphere that further enhances our immersion into this maritime world. This extraordinary artwork now resides at Owen Edgar Gallery in London, UK where it can be admired for its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Its timeless beauty reminds us of an era when travel was not only about reaching destinations but also about embracing adventure and discovery.
