EDITORS COMMENTS
This steel engraving from 1832 takes us back in time to the picturesque Cape Sounion in Greece. The view of this stunning coastal landscape, known as Cape Colonna, is beautifully captured by Edward Finden after William Purser. In this print, we are transported to an early morning scene where a fisherman sets out on his rowboat into the calm sea. The tranquility of the moment is enhanced by the soft hues and delicate lines of the engraving technique used. The composition showcases not only the natural beauty of Cape Sounion but also highlights elements of maritime life. A sailing ship gracefully glides across the horizon while a fisherman expertly maneuvers his boat with an oar. In his net lies hope for a bountiful catch that will sustain him and his community. As we gaze at this artwork, we can almost feel the gentle breeze coming off the water and hear seagulls calling overhead. It serves as a reminder of Greece's rich history and its deep connection to both land and sea. This print by Edward Finden after William Purser transports us to another era, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such detailed engravings and our own longing for exploration and adventure amidst nature's wonders.
