EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the raw power of nature, a man and his loyal companion bravely navigate the treacherous waters of a stormy countryside. In this wood engraving by Thomas Bewick, dated around 1790, we see a man in the midst of crossing a bridge, his hat blown off by the forceful gusts of wind and rain. The man's determined expression and the unwavering gaze of his dog, who clings tightly to his master's side, speak volumes of their unyielding bond and their shared resolve to overcome the elements. The intricate details of the engraving, from the droplets of rain cascading down the man's coat to the swirling currents beneath the bridge, transport us back to the 1790s and the romantic era of the 18th century. This evocative image of man and nature, captured by the masterful hand of Thomas Bewick, serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and tenacity of the human spirit.
