The ship's arrival marks its participation in the highly anticipated "Cutty Sark" race for tall ships, set to take place on 24 July between Saint-Malo and Aalborg, Denmark. The image showcases the sheer grandeur of the Sorlandet as it sails into the picturesque city of Saint-Malo. Its towering masts and billowing sails create a striking contrast against the backdrop of historic buildings that line the waterfront. The square format of this digital image further accentuates the symmetrical beauty of both sailboat and city. This photograph encapsulates a moment where history meets modernity, as traditional sailing vessels compete in an exhilarating race amidst contemporary urban surroundings.
