The Great Gale, some of its Disastrous Effects
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the devastating impact of a powerful storm. This print, part of a private collection, was originally published in The Graphic on December 4th, 1897. The image transports us to various coastal locations affected by the great gale. Ships struggle against towering waves while cliffs loom ominously in the background. Ruined cottages and damaged piers bear witness to the destructive force unleashed by nature's fury. From Sheerness to Southend-on-Sea, Scarborough to Margate, this lithograph captures scenes of destruction and chaos caused by the storm. A street scene shows debris scattered about as people navigate through treacherous weather conditions. In Sloughden and Broadstairs, damaged piers stand as reminders of the powerlessness faced by man against such forces. Amidst this devastation, there are glimpses of hope and heroism. A lifeboat battles through rough seas towards a ketch in distress off Aldeburgh and Lowestoft. The crew valiantly works together to save lives amidst turbulent waters. This engraving serves as both a historical record and an artistic testament to human resilience in face of adversity. It reminds us that even amid disaster, there is always room for courage and compassion. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection for future generations to appreciate - an evocative reminder of
