EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Come Back to Me! Tale by Clement Scott" transports us back to the maritime world of the 19th century. The engraving, created by William Heysham Overend, beautifully captures a scene filled with emotion and longing. In this illustration for The Illustrated London News from December 1885, we find ourselves on a desolate beach. A man stands alone, his gaze fixed upon the vast ocean before him. His ship has been lost at sea, and he mourns the sudden departure of his loved ones. With every wave crashing against the shore, he yearns for their return. The commanding presence of graveyards in the background serves as a poignant reminder of past shipwrecks and lives lost at sea. It is amidst this haunting setting that our protagonist finds himself desperately calling out for those who will never answer. As if responding to his plea, a rocket shoots up into the night sky – an emblematic symbol of hope and rescue in times of distress. Will it bring back what was lost? Only time will tell. Clement Scott's tale comes alive through Overend's skillful interpretation, evoking strong emotions within us as we contemplate themes of loss and longing. This literary illustration showcases not only artistic talent but also highlights the power that visual imagery holds in storytelling. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate this remarkable piece that transcends time and connects us with maritime history while reminding us of love's enduring strength even
