EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'Sketches of people at Boulogne, France (1870)', offers a humorous and insightful glimpse into the social fabric of Victorian society during the 1870s. Produced by renowned Scottish artist and caricaturist, Thomas Gordon, this collection of sketches was originally published in London and captures the essence of a popular seaside destination for the English elite. Boulogne-sur-Mer, located in northern France, was a favored spot for tourists seeking relaxation and enjoyment away from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The sketches in this print beautifully illustrate the diverse range of characters and activities that could be found at the beach. From the serious sunbather with an umbrella and a book, to the playful children building sandcastles, and the determined fisherman casting his line into the sea, each sketch is a testament to the spirit of leisure and amusement that defined the Victorian era. The sketches also reveal the sense of humor and satire that was prevalent during this time. For instance, the image of a man attempting to balance a large parasol on his head while trying to enjoy a picnic, or the group of ladies engaged in a lively game of pigeon shooting, are both amusing and relatable. These sketches not only serve as a window into the past, but also as a reminder of the universal human experiences and joys that transcend time and place. Thomas Gordon's 'Sketches of people at Boulogne, France (1870)' is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, social history, or simply appreciating the quirks and charms of Victorian society.
