EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back in time to the picturesque town of Barking, Essex. The print, created by renowned artist William Henry Bartlett in the 19th century, beautifully captures the essence of this East Anglian county. The scene depicts a bustling harbor filled with an array of boats and ships. A majestic sailboat glides gracefully across the water, its sails billowing in the wind. In contrast, a sturdy tugboat chugs along beside it, showcasing the diverse range of vessels that once graced these waters. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched into the print tells a story. From the intricate rigging on each boat to the charming waterfront buildings lining Barking's shore, one can almost hear the sounds of seagulls and feel a gentle sea breeze while gazing at this artwork. Bartlett's engraving was originally featured as an illustration for "The County of Essex" by Thomas Wright. This particular print has been digitally cleaned over time but still retains its historical charm. A true testament to England's rich maritime heritage and transport history, this enchanting image invites viewers to step into a bygone era where sailing ships ruled these waters and Barking was alive with activity. It serves as both a reminder of our past and an inspiration for future generations who seek to preserve our cultural legacy.
