EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the exhilarating era of the 19th century when two mighty clipper ships, the Ariel and the Taeping, engaged in a fierce race across treacherous waters. The image beautifully captures the essence of this historic event as it showcases these majestic vessels sailing side by side, their billowing sails filled with wind. The year was 1866, and both ships were on a mission to transport precious cargo - tea from China to London. As they raced against time and each other, their crews pushed their limits to secure victory in what would become known as "The Great Clipper Ship Race". This thrilling competition not only tested their seamanship skills but also determined who would claim fame and fortune for delivering the new tea crop first. With its vibrant colors brought to life through lithography techniques, this print immerses us into an enchanting seascape where waves crash against sturdy hulls while seagulls soar above. It is a testament to human ingenuity and determination in conquering vast oceans for trade and transportation. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured by an unknown artist, we cannot help but be captivated by the sheer beauty and grandeur of these clippers racing towards glory.
