EDITORS COMMENTS
Mother Carey, also known as the 'Water Baby' or 'Queen of the Sea,' is a legendary figure from maritime folklore, believed to possess the power to calm stormy seas and protect sailors. In this 1863 photograph by an unknown artist, Mother Carey is depicted in an ethereal setting, seated on a grand, white marble throne. Her regal posture and serene expression convey a sense of wisdom and tranquility as she rests her chin in her hand, deep in thought. The backdrop of the image is the vast, unyielding sea, with its undulating waves and the distant silhouette of an iceberg adding to the sense of mystery and wonder. The photograph, published by Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the historical significance of this enigmatic figure, who has been the subject of numerous tales and legends for centuries. Tom, a young sailor, is said to have encountered Mother Carey during a violent storm at sea. According to the story, Tom's ship was in peril, and as the waves threatened to engulf the vessel, Mother Carey appeared before him, calming the sea and guiding Tom and his crew to safety. The photograph's intricate details, from the delicate folds of Mother Carey's gown to the intricately carved throne, transport us back in time, allowing us to imagine the world of sailors and sea legends that once captivated the imaginations of generations. With the addition of books and scrolls at Mother Carey's feet, the image invites us to explore the rich history and folklore surrounding this enigmatic figure, Tom's encounter, and the vast, uncharted waters of the sea.
