EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Erecting the Funnels" captures a pivotal moment in shipbuilding history. Created by Charles John de Lacy in the early 20th century, this print showcases the skilled workers of Britain's shipyards as they meticulously construct a vessel. The image transports us to a bustling shipyard where we witness the awe-inspiring process of erecting massive funnels onto a magnificent hull. Towering cranes dominate the scene, their strength and precision essential for lifting these colossal structures into place. Shipbuilders diligently work together, their expertise evident in every movement as they navigate gangplanks with ease. This artwork is not just an illustration; it represents the heart and soul of British industry during this era. It symbolizes Great Britain's reputation as a global maritime powerhouse and highlights its unwavering commitment to innovation and craftsmanship. Through this print, we glimpse into an industrial world that shaped nations and propelled them forward. The dedication of these workers echoes throughout time, reminding us of their invaluable contribution to society. As we admire this engraving from Charles R Gibson's book "Ships that Saved the Empire" let us appreciate both the artistry captured within it and the countless unsung heroes who labored tirelessly behind each stroke. Their legacy lives on through images like these - testaments to human ingenuity, determination, and unity in building something greater than themselves.
