EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Where Nought Is Heard But Lashing Wave And Sea-Birds Cry" transports us to the rugged coastal cliffs of the late 19th century. Created by artist Peter Graham in 1880 but published in Bibbys Annual of 1912, this monochrome masterpiece captures the essence of a stormy day at sea. The scene is shrouded in mist as crashing waves relentlessly pound against the towering rocks. The sheer power and force of nature are palpable, evoking a sense of awe and respect for the untamed ocean. Amidst this tempestuous backdrop, seagulls soar through the air with their haunting cries piercing through the roaring wind. Graham's etching skillfully portrays both the beauty and harshness of this coastal landscape. The rough texture of the cliffs is juxtaposed with delicate details that bring life to each wave and bird depicted. This artwork not only showcases Graham's mastery but also serves as a reminder of humanity's insignificance when faced with nature's might. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are transported back to an era where literature often romanticized such scenes - where crashing waves symbolized tumultuous emotions or represented man's struggle against adversity. It reminds us that even amidst chaos, there is still beauty to be found in our surroundings. This print from Bibbys Annual serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and its significance within early 20th-century
