Measuring 55.8x78.7 cm, this artwork is housed in a private collection and offers a glimpse into the world of Florence and Paul Dombey, beloved characters from Charles Dickens' renowned novel, Dombey and Son. The image captures a serene moment by the seaside, where a young female character sits peacefully in her perambulator while listening intently to the crashing waves. The wild surf crashes against the rocky coastline as gusts of wind whip through their surroundings, creating an atmosphere filled with both excitement and tranquility. Nicholls skillfully portrays the essence of childhood curiosity and wonderment through his sentimental portrayal of these Victorian children. As they sit side by side on the beach, one cannot help but be captivated by their innocence amidst such rough coastal conditions. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings forth not only visual beauty but also evokes auditory sensations – inviting viewers to ponder: "What are the wild waves saying?". This question lingers in our minds as we contemplate nature's untamed power and its ability to communicate something profound beyond our comprehension. With this exceptional piece captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness a fleeting moment frozen forever within brushstrokes – reminding us of the enduring allure that maritime scenes hold within our collective imagination.
