EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white albumen print, titled "Westward Ho and Pebble Ridge, 1860/94" transports viewers back to the stunning coastal town of Westward Ho in Devon, England during the 19th century. Created by renowned photographer Francis Bedford, this art piece captures the essence of a picturesque seaside town. The image showcases the rugged beauty of Pebble Ridge, a geographical feature that stretches along the coast. The pebbles glisten under the sunlight as they line the beach, creating a mesmerizing sight. The vastness of the sea can be seen in the background, its waves crashing against the shore with an undeniable force. Bedford's mastery is evident in his ability to capture both natural landscapes and human elements within this photograph. In this particular shot, he skillfully includes buildings from Westward Ho's townscape which add depth and context to the scene. These structures stand as a testament to British heritage and serve as reminders of how civilization coexists harmoniously with nature. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork at Chicago's Art Institute gallery or art center, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever by Bedford's lens. This albumen silver print serves as an important historical document that not only showcases artistic brilliance but also provides valuable insights into life on Britain's coastal towns during that era.
