EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken by Otto Herschan in 1857, we are transported back in time to Ramsgate Pier. The image beautifully captures the essence of a bygone era, as strollers leisurely make their way along the pier. In the background, masts of sailing ships crowd the horizon, creating a sense of bustling maritime activity. The composition exudes an air of tranquility and nostalgia. The male and female figures featured in the foreground are elegantly dressed in fashion typical of the period. Their attire reflects both refinement and practicality, mirroring societal norms at that time. The presence of a vessel sailing ship adds depth to the scene, reminding us of Ramsgate's historical significance as a port town. A crane can also be seen nearby, hinting at ongoing trade or construction activities during that era. Otto Herschan's masterful use of black and white format enhances every detail captured within this portrait-like photograph. It allows us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty of Ramsgate Pier but also its role as a hub for water transport in Europe during those times. This remarkable print is an exquisite piece that transports viewers back to 1857 England while evoking feelings of curiosity about life on Ramsgate Pier over a century ago.
