EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling harbor of Portsmouth, Hampshire, England. The general view showcases the city's maritime heritage with Nelson's battleship "The Victory" proudly anchored in the foreground. This iconic vessel serves as a powerful reminder of Britain's naval prowess during this era. The image is taken from an album titled "Around The Coast" which features photographs capturing the chief seaside places of interest in Great Britain and Ireland. Published in London by George Newnes Limited in 1895, this archival piece provides a valuable historical snapshot. Portsmouth itself emerges as a vibrant coastal resort city through this illustration. The harbor teems with boats, hinting at its significance as a thriving port for trade and travel. Its strategic location on England's south coast has long made it an important hub for maritime activities. As we delve into this picture from yesteryear, we are transported to Victorian times - an era characterized by innovation and progress. This engraving encapsulates that period perfectly, showcasing both the architectural beauty of Portsmouth and its connection to British naval history. Ken Welsh skillfully captures all these elements within his artwork without mentioning any commercial use or affiliation with any company. It is truly a remarkable piece that allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and our rich historical past.
