EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the South Stack Lighthouse, a magnificent structure situated on a small island off the coast of Holy Island, Anglesey in Wales. Built in 1809 by the talented Daniel Asher Alexander, this lighthouse served as a crucial warning beacon for ships navigating the treacherous Irish Sea. The image is sourced from "Picturesque Europe - The British Isles, Vol. II", published around 1870 by Cassell, Petter & Galpin in London. The photograph captures not only the architectural beauty of the lighthouse but also its isolated and remote location amidst rugged rocks and steep cliffs. It evokes a sense of awe at both nature's power and human ingenuity. Against this dramatic backdrop, we see people walking along a path near the lighthouse, adding scale to its grandeur. The image transports us back to the Victorian era when travel and exploration were burgeoning interests among Europeans. It invites us to imagine ourselves standing on that very spot over a century ago, marveling at this engineering feat while contemplating our own place within an ever-expanding world. As we admire this historical gem preserved through time by The Print Collector/Heritage Images, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation and technology while honoring those who paved the way for safer journeys across vast seas like the Irish Sea.
