EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Great Eastern, 1937" from the renowned book "The Story of Navigation". Published by The Imperial Tobacco Co. (Of Great Britain & Ireland) in 1937, this stunning image captures the grandeur and majesty of this iconic steam ship. Set against a backdrop of deep blue sea and clear skies, the exterior of The Great Eastern is a testament to British engineering prowess. Its towering metal structure dominates the frame, exuding strength and power. The ship's white color stands out vividly against the surrounding elements. As smoke billows from its funnel, one can almost imagine being on board this magnificent vessel during its heyday in the late 19th century. This photograph encapsulates an era when sail was gradually giving way to steam-powered ships. "The Great Eastern" holds historical significance not only for its impressive size but also because it was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, a legendary figure in British engineering history. This print serves as a visual reminder of his remarkable contributions to maritime innovation. With meticulous attention to detail and panoramic photography techniques employed, this print transports viewers back to a time when water transport played a vital role in global trade and exploration. A true gem from "The Story of Navigation" this print offers an enchanting glimpse into both British industrial heritage and seafaring adventures that defined much of the 19th-century world.
