EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to witness a momentous journey across the English Channel. The print captures the scene of a troublesome crossing aboard the Boulogne Boat, as depicted by an anonymous English School artist. The image showcases a bustling ship with its flag hoisted high, braving a strong breeze on its voyage from England to France. Onboard, we see a diverse group of passengers and crew members facing various difficulties during this daring adventure. French and British captains can be observed coordinating their efforts while donning their distinctive hats, symbolizing national pride. Amongst them are honeymoon travelers sketching memories of their romantic getaway and German passengers representing Europe's cultural diversity. This snapshot offers us glimpses into different European cultures coexisting within this maritime microcosm. As we delve deeper into this historical artwork, it becomes evident that channel crossings were not without challenges. The cabin reveals weary faces reflecting both excitement and trepidation as they navigate through turbulent waters towards their destination. Through this enchanting engraving, we gain insight into an era when travel was far more arduous than today's seamless journeys. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' determination to explore new horizons despite facing numerous obstacles along the way. This print is part of Bridgeman Images' collection and provides us with an invaluable window into history – reminding
