EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the Paddle Steamer Westward Ho gracefully docked at Cardiff Bay during the late 19th century. This photograph, taken in the heart of the Victorian era, transports us to an age of romance and adventure on the water. The Edwardian period, marked by its elegance and refinement, is beautifully represented in this vintage image. The Paddle Steamer Westward Ho, a symbol of the industrial revolution, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. With its tall, majestic funnel and intricately designed paddle wheels, the steamer cuts an impressive figure against the backdrop of the Cardiff skyline. The lantern slide, a popular medium for projecting images during the era, captures every detail of the steamer's distinctive features. The tranquil waters of Cardiff Bay reflect the steamer's elegant silhouette, creating a mirror image that adds to the serene beauty of the scene. The surrounding landscape is dotted with quaint Victorian buildings, their brick facades adorned with intricate details and ornate designs. The bustling activity of the dockside, with people going about their daily business, adds a sense of energy and life to the image. This photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a precious reminder of a bygone era. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who traveled on the Westward Ho, the sights they saw, and the experiences they had. A true treasure for history buffs, collectors, and anyone with a love for the Victorian and Edwardian periods, this image is a must-have for any vintage or maritime-themed collection.
