EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "V" captures the synchronized dive of two swimmers, forming the letter V with their bodies. Created by Francois Antoine Appel in the late 19th century, this artwork is part of a series called "Alphabet Figure Call". The chromolithograph measures 10 x 7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The image showcases an idyllic beach scene, complete with bathing cabins and sandy shores. It exudes a sense of leisure and enjoyment as people engage in recreational activities during their spare time. The beachfront provides a backdrop for both education and entertainment, as individuals learn through playful experiences. In this particular photograph, we see two divers - one woman and one man - displaying perfect synchronization as they plunge into the sea simultaneously. Their swimsuits epitomize the fashion trends of that era's beachwear. Appel's work not only captures the beauty of seaside leisure but also highlights gender dynamics during that period. The feminine grace exhibited by the lady diver contrasts with the masculine strength portrayed by her male counterpart. As viewers admire this piece from Fine Art Finder, they are transported back to a time when beaches were places for relaxation, learning, and self-expression. This artwork serves as a reminder of our timeless fascination with water sports while offering insight into historical societal norms surrounding gender roles at play on European beaches in the late 19th century.
