EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Sunset on the Pearling Banks, Marrichikaddi" transports us back to the late 19th century in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Created by artist Alfred William Amandus Plate as part of his collection "The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon" in 1910, this artwork captures the atmospheric beauty of a coastal sunset. In this scene, we are presented with a stunning vista where the sun's rays reflect off the calm sea. The silhouette of fishing boats adds an Asian touch to the landscape, highlighting both local industry and transportation. As we gaze at this monochrome masterpiece, it evokes a sense of tranquility and awe-inspiring natural beauty. Plate's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of light and shadow. The way he captures the reflection on water transports us into this serene moment. This print not only showcases artistic talent but also provides insight into historical geography and maritime activities during that period. As we admire this piece from "The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon" it serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with science and literature. It allows us to appreciate how different disciplines can converge to create something truly remarkable. This print is undoubtedly a testament to Plate's skill as an artist and his ability to capture moments that transcend time itself.
