EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from 1884 captures the breathtaking beauty of Ballinskelligs Bay in Ireland. In this detailed illustration, we see a series of fascinating landmarks that tell a story of history and culture. The image begins with the majestic sight of "I. The Faraday Entering Ballinskelligs Bay" showcasing a ship gracefully sailing into the bay's tranquil waters. Moving towards the center, our eyes are drawn to "2. Lower Lighthouse On The Great Skellig". Perched atop this rocky island, the lighthouse stands as a beacon of safety for passing ships amidst treacherous waves. Next, our gaze is directed to "3. The Bull Rock Off Dursey Head" where an exciting new lighthouse is under construction. This symbolizes progress and innovation in maritime navigation. The scene then shifts to an intriguing process: "4. Landing The Shore End Of The Cable By Means Of Boats And Rafts". This depiction showcases the determination and skill required to connect distant lands through underwater cables. Finally, we are treated to a glimpse of ancient monastic life on "5. Beehive Cells On Great Skellig". These unique structures offer insight into early Irish religious practices and serve as reminders of centuries past. Overall, this nineteenth-century engraving by Bennett Atlantic Cable transports us back in time, capturing both natural beauty and human ingenuity along Ireland's rugged coastline.
