EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print captured by Peter Henry Emerson. This artwork belongs to the album "Wild Life on a Tidal Water: The Adventures of a House-Boat and Her Crew" published in 1890. The edition number for this particular print is 270 out of 50. The image showcases a picturesque scene along the British coast during the late 19th century. A sailboat gracefully glides across the water's surface, its sails billowing in the wind. The reflection of the boat creates an enchanting mirrored effect on the tranquil tidal waters. Peter Henry Emerson was renowned for his innovative photographic techniques, and this photoetching exemplifies his mastery of capturing natural beauty with artistic flair. Through his lens, he transports viewers to another time and place, evoking a sense of nostalgia for simpler days spent sailing amidst stunning scenery. This historic artwork not only captures the essence of English coastal life but also serves as a testament to Emerson's contribution to photography as an art form. It invites us to appreciate both nature's serenity and man's harmonious interaction with it through water transport. As we gaze upon "On the Flood, 1887" we are reminded that even in our modern world, there is still profound beauty in simplicity – where sailboats dance upon reflective waters under vast open skies.
