EDITORS COMMENTS
The 118-foot ketch Fidra gracefully rests at anchor in this print from 1922. Originally named Cariad, she underwent a transformation when purchased by Frank Chaplin, a distinguished member of the R. Y. S. , leading to her new identity as Fidra in 1913. Built by Summers & Payne in Southampton back in 1896 for Lord Dunraven, this magnificent vessel holds a rich history within its elegant frame. Captured by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, renowned photographers Arthur Henry Kirk and Edgar WP Kirk skillfully immortalized the beauty of Fidra against the picturesque backdrop of England's Isle of Wight. The monochrome composition enhances the timeless charm exuded by this gaff-rigged sailing yacht. As one gazes upon the image, they are transported back to an era where sailboats like Fidra were symbols of luxury and adventure. With her sleek lines and expertly crafted design, she epitomizes both power and grace on water transport. This photograph serves as a testament to the craftsmanship that went into creating such majestic vessels during the early twentieth century. It also pays homage to Lord Dunraven's legacy as an esteemed yachtsman who undoubtedly cherished his time aboard this remarkable cutter. The sight of Fidra gently swaying with wind-filled sails evokes feelings of tranquility and wanderlust among those who appreciate nautical wonders. This stunning print is not only a visual delight but also a window
