EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Gales on the South Coast, Dragging the Lifeboat from Brighton to Portslade" takes us back in time to a dramatic maritime rescue mission. The image showcases the immense power of nature as gales rage along the shore, creating treacherous conditions for those at sea. In this historic moment captured by an 1891 engraving, we witness a heroic effort to save lives. The lifeboat, battered by the relentless waves, is being dragged across the rugged terrain by a group of determined rescuers. The caption informs us that it took considerable strength and perseverance before two horses were obtained to aid in pulling the life-saving vessel. The scene evokes a sense of urgency and danger as we imagine the desperate situation faced by those in need of rescue. It serves as a reminder of both the bravery exhibited by these courageous individuals and their unwavering commitment to safeguarding lives amidst perilous circumstances. With its retro-styled appearance, this vintage print transports us back to an era when engravings were used as illustrative techniques in documenting historical events. It offers not only a glimpse into our past but also pays homage to Victorian arts and culture. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection's archives, let it serve as a testament to human resilience and remind us of our duty towards one another's safety even in times of great adversity.
