EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour print captures the majestic beauty of the extinct volcanoes Viejo and Monotomba in Realejo, Nicaragua on April 5th, 1850. Painted by Admiral Sir Edward Gennys Fanshawe, this piece is a part of his Pacific album from 1849-52.
The artist's daughter provides insight into the origin of this breathtaking view, explaining that Admiral Fanshawe ventured to Realejo in search of the flagship 'Asia' under Rear-Admiral Phipps Hornby. The scene depicts the Pacific coast near Realejo, showcasing a picturesque coastline with towering mountains and serene waters.
Fanshawe's attention to detail and use of vibrant colors bring this coastal landscape to life, capturing the essence of Central America in the 19th century. The play of light and shadow on the mountains creates a sense of depth and dimension, while the calm sea adds a sense of tranquility to the scene.
As you gaze upon this artwork, you can almost feel the warm breeze off the ocean and hear the gentle lapping of waves against shore. It serves as a timeless reminder of nature's power and beauty, preserved for generations to come through Admiral Fanshawe's masterful brushstrokes.
