The Sands, 1813 - A Glimpse into a Humorous Day Out at Scarborough Beach
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant and amusing print titled "The Sands, 1813" we are transported back to a sunny day on the picturesque beach of Scarborough in Yorkshire. Created by J Green, this 19th-century aquatint captures a comical scene featuring a donkey cart and its irate driver. As the donkey cart trundles along the sandy shore, an impatient driver brandishes his whip in frustration. Passengers aboard the cart look on with wide-eyed consternation, unsure of what has provoked such anger from their guide. The colorful attire and expressions of both men add to the charm and humor of this snapshot from history. This image not only showcases the beauty of Britain's coastline but also provides insight into transportation during that era. Donkeys were commonly used for road transport in those times, making them an integral part of daily life for many families seeking seaside outings. With Thomas Rowlandson's engraving technique adding depth and detail to J Green's artwork, every element comes alive - from the crashing waves against Scarborough's shores to the animated characters dotting its landscape. "The Sands, 1813" is more than just a visual delight; it serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people sought leisurely escapes by the sea while encountering humorous mishaps along their way. This print offers us an opportunity to appreciate both our shared history and our timeless human nature
