EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A Deal Lugger making for a Ship on the Goodwins" transports us back to the English Channel in 1872. Created by Edwin Weedon, this artwork captures a dramatic maritime scene that was featured in The Illustrated London News. In the foreground, we see a sturdy Deal Lugger boat gracefully navigating through choppy waters towards a majestic ship anchored on the treacherous Goodwin Sands. The skilled crew of the lugger is determined to reach their destination and assist with whatever task awaits them aboard the ship. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every wave and gust of wind seems palpable as they add an element of suspense to this print. The dark clouds looming overhead further heighten the tension, suggesting that time may be running out for these brave sailors. We can almost feel ourselves being swept up in this thrilling moment as we imagine witnessing it firsthand from another vessel nearby. This engraving serves as a testament to both the dangers faced by seafarers during this era and their unwavering commitment to duty. Edwin Weedon's masterful portrayal not only showcases his artistic talent but also pays homage to those who risked their lives daily along England's coastline. It reminds us of the bravery and resilience required when facing nature's unpredictable forces at sea.
