A Run Ashore at St Helena
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant scene of festivity and excitement on the remote island of Saint Helena. The engraving, created by Frank Dadd in 1886, showcases a group of weary sailors who have arrived ashore after a long journey. They find respite from their tiredness and weariness amidst the picturesque landscape. Perched atop a cliff overlooking the sea, they gather around the bust of Napoleon Bonaparte, paying homage to his memory. The atmosphere is filled with merriment as games and sports unfold on Salisbury Plain. Horses race along the mountaintop while others engage in a lively game of cricket. The exhausted sailors take advantage of this much-needed break from their arduous voyage. Some rest under shady trees or sit by Napoleons tomb, finding solace in its historical significance. Others quench their thirst with refreshing drinks brought ashore. The cliffs provide an awe-inspiring backdrop to this joyful gathering, reminding everyone of both the beauty and dangers that surround them on this isolated island. Through Dadd's intricate engravings, we are transported back to a time when even simple pleasures were cherished amidst challenging circumstances. This print serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate ability to find joy even in the most tiring moments.
