EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a remarkable moment in history - the voyage of the Steam Ship Ormuz from Australia to England in 1887. The image captures the ship's daring journey through treacherous waters, as it navigates both the Suez Canal and the formidable Straits of Bab-el-Mandeb. Despite facing a full gale with winds howling at fourteen knots an hour, this mighty vessel perseveres, showcasing its strength and resilience. The stormy weather adds drama to the scene, with waves crashing against the ship's hull and salty water spraying into the air. The print transports us to a time when steamships were at their prime, revolutionizing global trade and transportation. Laden with cargo destined for distant shores, these ships played a vital role in connecting nations across vast oceans. The intricate details of this engraving bring out every aspect of this historic event - from the grandeur of the Ormuz itself to its surroundings filled with wind-swept clouds and turbulent seas. It is truly a testament to human ingenuity and determination. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are reminded of our ancestors' relentless pursuit of progress amidst nature's fury. This vintage print serves as a window into our past while also celebrating mankind's triumphs over adversity.
