EDITORS COMMENTS
The Yawl Celia gracefully glides through the wind and waves, showcasing its timeless beauty in this photo print. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes in 1911, this stunning image captures a moment frozen in time during the early 20th century. With its gaff rig and close-hauled position, the Celia demonstrates both elegance and power as it sails across the waters off the Isle of Wight, England. The skilled craftsmanship of Arthur Henry Kirk is evident in every detail of this magnificent sailing boat. The monochrome tones add a touch of nostalgia to this scene, transporting us back to an era when sailboats were not only means of transportation but also symbols of adventure and exploration. The windward quarter reveals that despite challenging weather conditions, the crew confidently navigates their vessel towards new horizons. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of maritime history captured by Edgar WP Kirk with William Umpleby Kirk's assistance, we can almost feel the salty breeze on our faces and hear the rhythmic sound of water splashing against her hull. This print serves as a reminder that even after a century has passed since its creation, The Yawl Celia continues to inspire awe with its enduring grace.
