EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the opulent world of maritime leisure. The majestic steam yacht Shawnee takes center stage as it gracefully cuts through the waves, showcasing its sleek design and undeniable grandeur. Crafted by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, renowned shipbuilders of their time, this vessel was truly a masterpiece. Owned by Earl De La Warr in 1910 and sailing from Buckhurst in Sussex, Shawnee epitomized luxury and sophistication. The monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia to this image. It allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from the billowing sails to the elegant lines that define her silhouette. The boat's broadside view highlights its impressive size while emphasizing its power on water. Located off England's picturesque Isle of Wight, Cowes served as an idyllic backdrop for such magnificent vessels. This snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also echoes whispers of extravagant parties held aboard these floating palaces. As we admire this remarkable piece from Arthur Henry Kirk's collection - Edgar WP Kirk being his collaborator - we are reminded of how transportation has evolved over centuries. The steam yacht Shawnee symbolizes an era when water transport represented both prestige and adventure. Let this photograph transport you back in time; let your imagination
