EDITORS COMMENTS
The 10 Metre class sailing yacht Irex, designed by William Fife III and launched in 1910, gracefully glides through the waters of The Solent. This print captures the timeless beauty of this magnificent vessel, showcasing its sleek lines and impressive size. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, renowned for their craftsmanship in boat building, Irex stands as a testament to their skill and dedication. With her gaff rig sail design and elegant cutter shape, she embodies the epitome of classic yachting. The Isle of Wight serves as a picturesque backdrop for this scene, with its rolling hills and tranquil waters providing an idyllic setting for sailing enthusiasts. As Irex reaches into the wind with her lee quarter exposed to the breeze, it is evident that she was built not only for aesthetics but also for speed. This monochrome image captures a moment frozen in time from early 20th century yachting history. It transports us back to an era when sailing was not just a sport but also a symbol of elegance and adventure. Whether displayed in a maritime museum or cherished by avid sailors today, this print is sure to evoke admiration for both the artistry behind its creation and the enduring allure of sailing.
