EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Old Coal Shipping Staithes near Wallsend" by R. Sheriton Holmes takes us back in time to the bustling industrial landscape of the River Tyne in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. The artwork showcases the intricate details of the shipping staiths, or loading jetties, at Mordues Ballast, a prominent firm based in Wallsend. In this scene, we witness a masted sailing ship being loaded at one of the staiths while a steam paddle tug looms behind it. The conical chimneys of glass and pottery factories line the river bank, providing an insight into the thriving industry that once dominated this area. The artist's pencil and watercolor technique beautifully captures every architectural element and texture. R. Sheriton Holmes was not only an amateur artist but also a civil engineer who dedicated his later years to producing remarkable artworks like this one. His attention to detail and passion for depicting local scenes make his works truly special. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era when coal shipping played a vital role in shaping both local communities and global trade networks. This artwork serves as a reminder of our rich industrial heritage and pays homage to those who worked tirelessly on these staithes along the River Tyne.
