A Wet Day
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the late 19th century. This intricate artwork, created by Harry Furniss and now part of a private collection, was originally published in The Illustrated London News on December 19,1885. The scene depicted in this print transports us to a rainy day at the seaside. Despite the inclement weather, life goes on with its own unique charm. A group of children can be seen playing indoors, finding joy and laughter amidst the pouring rain outside. They romp around with abandon, their imaginations running wild as they create their own adventures. In this bustling room filled with chairs and boxes, musicians entertain the lively crowd with their melodies. The atmosphere is vibrant as people gather together to enjoy each other's company and escape from the wetness outside. Through Furniss' masterful engraving technique, we are transported into an era where transportation relied heavily on boats and tugboats were a common sight along coastal towns like Baden in Germany. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical environment but also the spirit of German culture during that time. This enchanting artwork reminds us that even on gloomy days when it seems impossible to venture outdoors, there is still beauty and merriment to be found within our own four walls. "A Wet Day" serves as a timeless reminder that joy can be discovered even in unexpected places if we open our hearts and embrace our imagination.
