The Great Days of Yachting Gallery

A selection of beautiful marine photographs by Kirk & Sons of Cowes charting the history of yachting from the late 19th century to the 1930s. Enjoying royal patronage, Kirk & Sons captured a bygone age of the sport; the sport of royalty, the rich and the privileged. Their maritime subjects included sailing yachts, steam yachts, early flying boats, power boats, warships and liners; as well as remarkable portraiture of the British Royal Family and other European royalty.

Choose from 105 items in our The Great Days of Yachting Collection for your Wall Art and Photo Gifts

We are proud to offer this selection in partnership with Heritage Images
