EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of departure for a two-masted sailing ship as it sails out of Bridport Harbour in Dorset, England, in the year 1908. The ship, with its full sails billowing in the wind, cuts through the tranquil waters of the harbour, leaving behind the safety and familiarity of the shore. In the foreground, a pilot, dressed in his traditional attire, waves farewell from a small boat, having guided the vessel safely through the harbour entrance and into the open sea. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when sailing ships were the primary mode of transportation and communication between distant lands. The ship's tall masts and sails, silhouetted against the sky, are a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of seafarers who braved the elements to explore new horizons. Bridport Harbour, located on the Jurassic Coast of Dorset, has a rich maritime history, with evidence of sailing activity dating back to the Roman period. The harbour was an essential link to the outside world, providing access to markets, resources, and opportunities for the local community. This photograph, taken in 1908, marks the beginning of a new era in transportation and communication, as the twentieth century was ushering in new technologies that would soon render sailing ships obsolete. Yet, the image remains a cherished reminder of a bygone era, when the sea was the highway of the world, and sailing ships ruled the waves.
