EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print from 1789 captures the essence of Brighton, Sussex, known at the time as Brighthelmstone. The bustling bathing place is depicted with intricate detail, showcasing row upon row of smoakers machines used by bathers to change into their swimwear. The old windmill stands proudly in the background, a symbol of industry and innovation in this coastal town.
The scene is alive with activity - boats bobbing on the water, people descending the cliffside steps to reach the beach below. It's a snapshot of life in England during a time when seaside resorts were growing in popularity among the upper classes.
Rowlandson's skillful hand brings this historical moment to life, capturing not just the physical landscape but also the spirit of a bygone era. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to imagine what it must have been like to visit Brighton over two centuries ago.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an age where leisure and pleasure were becoming more accessible to all. The charm and allure of Brighthelmstone shine through in every brushstroke, reminding us of the rich history that lies within these quaint seaside streets.
