1859 Life Boats Masts Pulleys Quarter Rigging Starboard Steam Ships Winches
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history aboard the Great Eastern steamship in September 1859. The image showcases the lifeboats on the starboard quarter of this magnificent vessel, providing a glimpse into the intricate rigging, masts, and pulleys that were essential for transport during this era.
The attention to detail in this photograph is truly remarkable - from the sturdy winches to the carefully positioned lifeboats ready for any emergency situation. The Great Eastern was a marvel of engineering at the time, and this image serves as a testament to its grandeur and significance in maritime history.
As you study this print, you can almost imagine yourself standing on deck, feeling the sea breeze against your face and hearing the creaking of ropes and sails. It's a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to appreciate both the beauty and functionality of these steamships from centuries past.
Mary Evans Picture Library has once again provided us with an invaluable glimpse into our collective past through their collection of historical images. This particular print is not just a piece of art but also a window into an important chapter in transportation history that continues to fascinate and inspire us today.
