EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming illustration of The Aquarium in Brighton, East Sussex, circa 1906. The iconic seafront attraction, located on the bustling waterfront, is depicted here with its distinctive clock tower and ornate arches. The aquarium was a popular destination for visitors to the town, who came to marvel at the array of marine life on display. The illustration features an intricate border adorned with playful shrimp and other shellfish, adding to the nautical theme. The shrimp, with their rosy hue and delicate legs, are a nod to the abundant seafood that was a staple of the Brighton diet. The aquarium itself is shown as a grand, Victorian-era building, with visitors gathered at the entrance, eager to explore the wonders of the deep. The Aquarium, Brighton, was first opened in 1872 and has since become a beloved institution on the town's seafront. Its collection of marine life, including sharks, rays, and tropical fish, continues to captivate and educate generations of visitors. This beautiful illustration offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when a day at the seaside meant donning your finest hat and coat, and spending hours exploring the wonders of the underwater world.
