The Portland Bus
EDITORS COMMENTS
or Steam Launch attached to H. M. S. "Hercules" in Fair and Foul Weather, captured in this 19th-century engraving by the English School, showcases a remarkable scene of maritime resilience and strength. The print, now part of a private collection, depicts the steam launch as it braves both fair and foul weather conditions. This illustration was originally featured in The Graphic on October 20,1883. It offers a glimpse into the world of naval transportation during that era. The steam launch is seen attached to H. M. S. "Hercules" showcasing the close relationship between these two vessels. The image portrays not only the power of these ships but also their vital role in transporting troops for the army and navy. In times of peace or conflict, they served as essential means of transport for armed forces personnel. The presence of "The Portland Bus" highlights its significance within royal circles too; perhaps it carried members of royalty at some point during its service history. Through this engraving, we are transported back to an era when technological advancements were revolutionizing transportation at sea. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination in conquering even the harshest weather conditions. As we admire this historic artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection today, let us appreciate those who sailed aboard such vessels - brave men who navigated through calm waters and stormy seas alike with unwavering resolve.
