EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Carlist Fort, 'El Parque, ' with Fontarabia and Mouth of the Bidassoa" takes us on a visual journey through the picturesque Basque provinces of Spain. Created by Henry Wilkinson in 1838 as part of his collection "Sketches of scenery in the Basque provinces of Spain" this print captures the essence of this breathtaking region. The scene unfolds before our eyes, revealing a stunning landscape that seamlessly blends rugged coastline with lush countryside. The river Bidassoa gracefully winds its way towards the bay, where it meets the vast expanse of sea. Alongside this natural beauty stands Carlist Fort, an imposing structure that adds historical depth to the composition. As we explore further, we notice a shepherd tending to his flock amidst rolling hills dotted with sheep. This pastoral scene evokes a sense of tranquility and harmony between man and nature. Wilkinson's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the delicate waves crashing against the shoreline to each blade of grass swaying gently in the breeze. The hand-colouring technique enhances these elements, infusing life into an already enchanting panorama. This print not only showcases Wilkinson's artistic prowess but also serves as a window into Northern Spain's maritime heritage and cultural richness. It invites us to immerse ourselves in this idyllic setting and appreciate both its natural splendor and historical significance.
