Wet Quakers, from Poetical Sketches of Scarborough, 1813
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers back to the coastal town of Scarborough in 19th century England. Created by renowned artists Thomas Rowlandson, Joseph Constantine Stadler, and J. Bluck, this hand-tinted aquatint showcases their exceptional talent and attention to detail. The scene depicted in the print captures a stormy day at sea, with rowing boats battling against powerful waves. In the foreground are figures dressed as Quakers - members of a religious group known for their simplicity and pacifism. Despite their faith's emphasis on peace, these individuals find themselves caught up in the tempestuous weather conditions. The use of color adds depth and intensity to the image; shades of blue convey the turbulent sea while hints of red highlight elements such as clothing or flags fluttering in the wind. The artists' skillful rendering allows us to feel both empathy for those struggling against nature's forces and awe at their determination. This print serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also offers insight into historical aspects such as transportation methods during this era. It reminds us that even amidst religious devotion and adherence to peaceful principles, individuals were still subject to unpredictable natural phenomena. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art among other notable works from this period, "Wet Quakers" stands as a testament to the enduring power of artistry in capturing moments frozen in time – reminding us that history is not just
