EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Port of Liverpool EAW670571" showcases the iconic landmarks that define the city's maritime heritage. Taken in 1997 by Aerofilms Ltd and preserved in the Historic England Archive, this image beautifully captures the essence of Liverpool's bustling port. In the foreground, we see three magnificent architectural marvels standing tall against a backdrop of cloudy skies. The Royal Liver Building, with its distinctive clock towers and mythical Liver Birds perched on top, commands attention as one of Liverpool's most recognizable symbols. Next to it stands the elegant Cunard Building, exuding grandeur and harking back to an era when transatlantic liners ruled these waters. Completing this trio is the Port of Liverpool Building, a testament to Victorian engineering prowess. Amidst these impressive structures lies the River Mersey, separating two vibrant cities - Liverpool and Birkenhead. Awaiting its turn to cross this historic waterway is a ferryboat patiently bobbing in anticipation. This simple yet essential mode of transportation has connected communities for centuries and continues to play a vital role in daily life. The photograph encapsulates both past and present; it transports us back to an era when ships from all corners of the globe would dock at this thriving port while reminding us that even today, maritime activity remains at the heart of Liverpool's identity. Through this remarkable image captured by Aerofilms Ltd. , we are granted a glimpse into Liverpool's rich maritime history – forever etched within our collective memory
